I was a bit disappointed when I discovered a technical problem with the wheels (as I’m sure most of you know reproduction wheels are not cheap) but since they were a Christmas present and since so much time has passed, I wouldn’t feel right calling Mr. D to complain. The problem does not compromise the strength of the wheels and it is such a slight cosmetic issue I was wondering if anyone but me would notice. My helpers don’t seem bothered by it but let me know if you see the difference between the right and the left front wheels. Now that it’s done, I don’t believe I’ll change it. I’ve attached pictures of the tractor before and after, each front wheel, the old round spoke cut-offs and (of course) my helpers. Thanks to all, Art [Reply]   [No Email]

It"s the cap screws that hold the bearing caps on. The left hand wheel has 5/16" and the right has 3/8"; so the hex head are a different size. After I finished painting it is hard to see! Thanks for all of the responses. Art P.S.-I believe the new round spoke wheels are correct for an unstyled tractor.   [Reply]  [No Email]
