Wheels Down

Postby John(videodoc) » Fri Jul 21, 2006 5:06 pm

I got the tires mounted, and the wheels on today. Among that a couple other odd jobs done today. Starter still at the shop hope, to pick up in the am, so i can take it for a drive :D (4 cubs no crank :o :( :shock: )This weekend. I have named her BETTE. B for Mr. Brown, the previous owner, E for Ejp for going above and beyond the call, TTE is Thanks To Everyone or (everone took turns) in restoring this one.

Heres todays pic

Here is the rest, to include the pic of my carb that sought treatment at Donny's Carb Rehab Center. :shock: :D http://s16.photobucket.com/albums/b46/v ... edia=image

Looking better all the tiem, but is there a reason the rear tires are backward?

I was hoping nobody would notice :oops: Got all done, was leaning back against the bench and got to looking, and realized, hey this doesnt look right.

But hey, i am thinking ifn i ever need to plow in reverse, i got it licked.

They gotta come off for paint anyway. So i switch em around then. Guess i didnt realize that there is a front/back to ag tires. But now i do, I have a habit of learning things the hard way. :oops:

Ifn you cant laugh at yoursef, then how can you laugh at others, right :!:

Looking good!

I am also REAL close.... tomorrow I will see just how serious I am about getting that front axle so it moves.

For some reason the rear tires I got are labled for use in both directions.... one way for traction and the other for running (forget the word they used).

I won't laugh too hard, when I put the gear reducer on Missy I turned around to get the wheel leaning agianst the wall, and noticed the fender also leaning there. :oops: I also know another memeber that got to the same point and realized the brake drum was still laying there.

Ag tires are "reversed" when put on ground driven implements such as manure spreaders and hay rakes.

Any time they are not on a drive axle. They should be reversed when used on the front axle of a conventional tractor.
