Eldon(WA} Would like to see or hear of tractors with duals,,,got any pictures or stories for him?How many of you have tractors with duals? Eldon (WA) would like to know
 
Many years ago my dad got a set of dual's for our 841 ford because he would get stuck in the creek when hauling gravel. But ever since I took over running it I have not had to duals on but still have them
 
The first one on the farm with duals. Uncle Earl on the 37 Oliver Hart Parr 70 with 8x40 duals.

The 1600 with duals pushing silage.

And the 2-135 after they gave a false sense of security.

I run duals in the spring for tillage and planting... and
fighting mud. 16.9x30 on the 4600, 18.4x34's on the
7000 and 7600, and 20.8x38 on the TW35. All
clamp-ons, although I'd switch to axle-mount on the
TW35 if I could find a set cheap enough.
I have pics on photobucket, but haven't figured out
how to post them using this phone.
You haven't been stuck, until you've been stuck with
duals. :)
 
I have a set of duals for the 60 that I've used while disking, field cultivating, and harrowing and a land side dual on the G when I plow.

Does this make my rear look big? 7110 CIH. 132 hp. Dry land wheat farm in SE corner of the Nebr pan handle. Sold the farm and this tractor in 2007.

AC G with duals, as we bought it.
Not the best pic, but only one I have on hand.

Its the only one Im aware of us ever having, and of
present we havr the rims and wheels needed to run
duals, but not tires.

The duals stay on the 4840 year around
as well as the 8430. Have duals for the
4230,4520,4250 and the 4020 but leave
them off for hay

Wish I had pictures of my dad's 1946 JD "B". In the early '50s he had a cedar swamp bulldozed to make a pasture. Wanted to disk it up with a 4' disk tiller. (Very heavy). He thought a set of steel cleated wheels outside the rubber tires would dig in when they lost footing in the muck. Unable to find steel, he rented a set of rubber off a tractor at the local JD dealer - spoked wheels no less. Just slid existing wheels in and slid duals on the outside of axles. Got along well did his disking, seeded it to reed canary grass which fed the cows for 20 years, and still grows there 60 years later. Neighbors were laughing their hineys off... But look what their grand kids are running today. As a side note, couple years back I got into that area with MF 180, and had one heckova time time getting it back out even with a heavy tractor on the hard level on a long tow strap. And that was on a heavily sodded area. Guess he had to use those duals.

I've always liked the looks of duals. When I was a kid I had duals on my Radio Flyer LOL!
Here is my Allis Chalmers D17 Series IV hi-clearance that I just put 15.5 x 38 duals on.

(quoted from post at 16:21:34 03/23/16) you started an interesting post here Eldon!
Thanks, you have good timing as I just finished up 38 rounds of radiation treatments today...and am feeling pretty darn good. Time to get back to living....

The first picture was taken in 1974----Its my 1968 IH 856 combination pulling tractor and farm tractor..It has
24.5x32's on the inside and 18.4x38 duals on the outside....It was run in the field at 160 horses and it would
just about walk on water...When a neighbor was stuck they called me..This tractor started my farming career.

The next picture is my 1969 G-900 MM on my 15 ft Great Plains drill in 1985..

The next picture is my 1970 1456 IH stuck on the 24 ft IH field cultivator in 2004...It was a little wet..

The next picture is my new 1979 Case 2390 in late 1979....It had very few hours when this picture was
taken..

The last picture is I and Dads new 200 Allis in May 1973....It had less than 50 hours on it then..

Didnt know that,,,best wishes for a great recovery,,you have onions to plant,,,get to it!May you have a healthy and good season ahead,,,and many many more to come.
 
Anyone remember Walt Davies? Wasn't he the guy
that had a tractor with duels on it buried on a
Christmas tree farm? I'm a right? Or another
poster?
 
Larry, I believe we
should revisit each
topic once a year or so.
I have a lot of the
things involved in some
of the topics, but
didn't have pictures of
it, and when I'd see the
topic it would be too
late to go get pictures
or moved on to a new
topic. Or, have the
featured topic I'd have
that item if tractor or
machinery related, but
maybe not in a position
to get a picture of it,
it have it torn apart
working on it. That way,
if the same topics were
posted each year or so,
work in processes that
guys have or have gotten
done could be then
included. Maybe also an
advance warning of
tomorrow's topic in
tonight's post, that way
a guy has a chance to
maybe get out that next
day and snap a picture.
Don't take this the
wrong way, I love these
topics, I'm just seeing
if we could improve on
the idea a bit. Maybe
that would mean more and
different pictures each
time a topic is posted?
And I do thank you for
posting them nearly
every night (as long as
we have a topic), I
really enjoy looking at
other people's stuff and
it also gives a guy a
chance to show his stuff
too. But, could we
repost these topics each
year, or would that
classify as "beating it
to death"? lol.

Yeah....the onion plants arrived today also! The good news is there aren't near as many to plant this year as we made the decision to live life a little easier and give up the veggie stand. I will do a couple of fields of sweetcorn and our own personal garden, but my wife went back to work in the medical field (yeah, good benefits just in time)...and I will continue my custom tractor work.
 
feature night is the creation of everyone here on the site,it is something that helped me get through the winter without getting in much trouble here...lol...Thank you all for the great ideas,,,and I Think you hit on something,,,saying what tomorrow nights is in advance,,,Lets try it? tomorrow nights feature is/////by Robin Hood,,,he wants to see or hear about milking equipment and wants to hear about pipeline vs parlor milking,,,or anything to do with milking
 
I agree, on some things there isn't time at the spur of the moment to come up with a pic. It would help to know on ahead what to be on the lookout for.
 
Thanks Larry! Good to know, as I don't have any cows or milking equipment to go take pictures of lol.

Ross
 
No, that would be classified as beating to it to death! I don't ever want to see another pic of your plow truck on here again, you already posted it this year so that's it! :)
Lol, I'm kidding, post pics of your truck every week don't bother me. Repeat post don't bother me either if something does bother me I don't read it but a lot of times different people answer to the same question and you get different opinions.
 
LOL thanks Jay! I'm like you, I'll answer the same question 25 times, as long as it's not to the same person more than twice, doesn't bother me a bit. Especially if I can help someone out. And, I like looking at the same pictures each year, kind of refreshing, you see it, sort of forget about it, then see it later on and think "oh yeah, I remember that pic, I really like it"
 
I just thought of
another topic, messed
up engine parts. Bent
rods, cracked
heads/blocks, blocks
with extra holes. Just
an idea...
Thanks again Larry!

It was a extremely wet spring in northern Ill., So I mounted triples on my UB Special, on both sides. This was a 'sand farm' so I could get away with working it wet. clint

I liked reading your post about how you plow. Alot different from here. The town I plowed wing man with had a front Viking plow and two wing plows, my job was to run passanger wing, front plow and sander. I rode in a paystar 5000, 4x4. We put chains on the front tires during ice storms, we had v plows, and sometimes had to break open county roads so they could get threw, as they wouldent use v plows. Now the New pork state thruway bought some kind of to behind trailer with a plow on it, I think it swings out past the truck so they can clear 2 lanes. Ill see if I can find a pic. Here is one.

The first tractor I had with duals was the 2090 Case that I still have. This photo from spring of 1989 shows it hooked up to a single 11 foot Morris Seed Rite finishing off some sloughs that had dried enough to seed. Earlier that spring I pulled a dual hitch covering 22 feet. Only thing that saved me was it was a dry spring. That was too heavy a load for a 2090.

Keeps good. We cover it with plastic as soon as it filled. Some of the big dairies around here have gotten away from bags and went to bunker silos so they aren't tearing around in the mud and sorting out plastic from loading out of bags.
a221171.jpg
 
Here's a couple. The 2-135 was my drillin' tractor. The Case/IH on with a 10 bottom Wil-rich plow. Bob

I noticed the NYSDOT using one of these this past winter on I-81 north of Syracuse.
My Dad used to operate a 1964 Gallion grader plowing I-81 south of Syracuse back in his working days.
Had a V plow, a 1 way plow and a wing. Could move some snow with that.
