Farmall Hs with flat spoke wheels

Farmallb · Sep 23, 2018

I have seen H Farmalls with spoke wheels like F-20s, and the front had the fork sticking out for the 20s style cultivator. What years were they made like this? Were Hs the only models made this way?

They are not spoke wheels they are dteel wheeks that had the outer bands cut off and rims for tires welded on. That was a very common practice on h and m tractors after ww2 ended. The cultivator shifting fork is for use with the hm219 and hm221 shifting gang cultivators built for use with h and m series tractors.

As Jim says,they are just 'cuttoff' wheels. All/any H/M could be had with steel wheels if desired. Some early ones were on steel because the farmer didn't want to spend extra money on 'rubber'. Also during WW2,Rubber was hard to find or not available so new tractors(if you could get one) were sold on steel After the war,most were converted to rubber.All H/M tractors could be equipped with that "fork" for a cultivator if desired.Front/mid mount cultivators were the norm back then.3 point cultivators didn't exist,except on 9/8N Fords.
