I grew up on MF tractors. But my Dad has one JD 4020 that we're trying to get ready for an auction.
On one of the rear hubs there are a bunch of bolts, or clamps - I'm not sure what to call them. There's a rib on the inside of the rim that they straddle At one point some of them slipped off to the side of the rib. We jacked it up, loosened the things up, and got them back in place.
I thought we had everything tightened back up. But when you move the tractor there are still some noises from the rim. I don't quite know what's going on or what to do about it.
Dad says the tractor knows I don't like it, so that's why it's giving me problems. :wink:
I want to get the thing in decent shape to sell. It could be that no one would know anything about the problem with the rim before they bought it. But I don't do things that way.
Don't have any pictures at the moment. But I can get some Sunday afternoon if that would help.
Any help you could offer would be appreciated.
