Bob Bancroft said: (quoted from post at 16:36:38 12/12/09) Based on my experience with an articulated tractor, a big front wheel assist tractor, and combines, I would prefer duals anytime. But yours is a different animal and a different situation. We have seen pictures of that tractor on here have we not?(with the canopy and the dog(s)attached)! I don't see how you could add duals without adding considerable width. I recently bought an antique 40 HP tractor that should have had 14.9x28 tires. It had 13.6x28. So I sold them and bought new 15" rims and put on 16.9x28. They stand a tiny bit taller, but not excessively so.


That's the one....

looking at my owners manual, it "LOOKS" like they would do the trick by manipulating the way they are bolted to the centers. If I could figure out how to convert the pic from .pdf to .jpg I'd post it. However, if the extra width would just make me swim on top of the soup, maybe I should just add weight to what I have? I have about a 600 pound weight for the 3pt but need to figure out how to get a hitch on it. Gonna put the loader back on so the frt will be heavier also.

As for the mud on the road question, if you have a green license plate (marks you as a farmer), you're usually OK. Some are curteious enough to shovel up the worst if they make a big mess on an intrance or something, but some just leave it lay.

One more ???. With 10 inch rims, how wide of tire could I put on and keep my rims? Or, how much wider than a rim can a tire be and still do the job?

Thanks, Dave

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
