Has a transmission issue, converted to 12v with alternator, needs a front rim, no s/n on motor block, Thomson rears

Those rims make it look odd the back ones that is since it would have come out with power adjust rims. As for a front rim I have a few laying around for the A/C 5 hole hubs
 
Most of the Thomson high crops including these were 36 inch. The fronts should be 21 inch and there should be additional bracing if it were a real Thomson high crop. No doubt previous owner borrowed off another WD or WD45 THC.
 
Where are you located? I'm guessing shipping of rim would be expensive. As to rears the Thomson fixed centers with 36" rears are correct for Thomson High Crops (should be with 21 inch fronts) - but rest of tractor is not.
 
The rims I have are 15 inch ones which is normal for the run of the mill WD45 and am in Missouri
 
You 100% sure?? I think the WD45 I have has 15s but would have to look to be 100% sure. One of those things you do not look at till you have to fix a flat things
 
also the front is just a factory wide front also correct 16" front rims.
To be a true Thomson would need the front end also,
Thomson used the 4 bolt bolster only.
If it works here is a picture of the one I got of La.
2 weeks ago has a neat set up has 2 transmissions
one is a WC and the other is couple together with the 45 transmission.

It has a funny 3-point and no PTO, and no s/n in the flat spot on block - but otherwise generic WD45
 
I don"t think this tractor was ever a Thomson - wrong front end - either someone put a regular WF on a Thomson (possibly to loose the 21 inch front rims) or they borrower a set of Thomson rears to substitute for replacing expensive rear tires - I would guess the later.

I don"t know about WD and WD45, but the WC High Crops came from AC factory with different gears - maybe someone else can comment about WD / WD45 gear sets.
