Hey all.
Looking for some advice on towing a B. From what I’ve managed to find online I’ll need a deck over trailer, as it’s wider than a car hauler. It’s in a different state so I can take exact measurements right now. Any advice?

Re: Towing Advice
If the wheels on the B are set as narrow as it will go, it will probably fit a car hauler with a 7' wide deck.

Re: Towing Advice
There is a Farmall B Owners Manual in the PDF Manuals section. Click on Quick Links in the upper left corner of this page, then PDF Manuals. It shows the various rear wheel configurations.

Re: Towing Advice
My car hauler type trailer is 76" between the fenders. A Farmall B with rear tires no larger than 9.5-24 can be set narrow enough to fit between those fenders. Also beware that my fenders stick up about 8 to 9 inches above the deck. If you have fenders much taller than that and have wheel weights, the weights will hit the fenders. Note that you can remove the wheel weights if they are a problem and load them into the truck. Keep in mind that they are 150# each and a bit hard to handle. You will also probably need to have some good grade wrenches to remove the weights or to change the width setting.
My B has larger tires and will not fit between my fenders. When I was going to haul mine long distance, we loaded it over a front corner so it faced backward with the rear wheels just in front of the fenders. I no longer remember just how we accomplished that. But it was not easy. It would have been a lot easier if the hitch jack hadn't been welded in place.
