Power Adjust Rim Question (MF150)

50&150

New User
Need to replace one rim on a 1964 MF150 gas. Tires are 13.6 x 28. The rim measure 11 x 28. There are 4 rails, 2 of them have holes drilled perpendicular to the rail (not parallel to the axle). It seems the exact replacement rims are not available. However, rims with no holes in the rails or parallel to the axle holes are availble.
What is usually done? Drill a new set of correct holes, buy other clamp hardware or buy other rims? Other?
Thanks,
Erich
 
check on the clamps,
am almost sure they make clamps for the angle holes and for straight holes.

why they drilled the holes in the spin out rails different, I can not tell you.

I lost the clamps off my old to35 years ago, was researching buying new ones, that is when I found out about the different angles.

but I have no wheel slippage, so at around $20 each, did not seem worth it to me, just to pull a rotary cutter and plow a few small garden spots.
 
I have bought two sets of power shift rims from OK Tractor, for AC tractors. For the most part, power shift rims, are power shift rims. These came with two different sets of holes. One set drilled perpendicular to the rim, the other drilled perpendicular to the rail. Thought I was doing good until I found that the holes usable with my stops were drilled too close together! Researching, I found three different types of stops! So, I bought new stops too.
The correct rim for a 13.6x28 is a 12" rim.
 
I measured side of rim side to side and subtracted 1 inch. So the measurement was 12 inch minus 1 = 11. The rims appear to be original. The tire does say 13.6 on a 12 inch rim.

The part number given in the first reply seems always to be superseded by a newer part number with the parallel to axle holes in the rails. That configuration must fit a bunch more tractors.

Bought a set from hayspear dot com last year for a 245. Delivered for a good price. Check parts from this site, they may be closer to you.
