A while back I posted a picture of my M with a new paint job. This tractor had the wheels all the way out on the axle and dished in. Someone commented that it would decrease bearing wear if the wheels were dished out and slid in. If the wheels were dished out on the axle they would be in the same position but slid in on the axle several inches. Do you think all the way out dished in causes more bearing wear, because of cantilever force? Do you think that the tractors were designed to be used in any position and it doesn't really matter? Is this one of these questions like what is the best engine oil? Is there a technical answer and a real world answer? Thanks for posting, Ellis
