New to the forum but have read it for years. I have been able to find a lot of good information on here.
I finally have a couple of questions I haven't seen on here regarding my latest acquisition.

The first questions is about the Stamped Steel Wheels.
I know they made duals with 38" stamped wheels but these are 16.9-34.
Was this an option?
Second question is about the lights.
All the 656's i see in photos and the ones I've seen in real life have 2 lights in the fenders.
The only other variation I've seen is the high crop or narrow front with the lights by the gas tank and M style fenders.
Are the fenders on mine factory, or did someone swap them out?
Was this originally a narrow front?
Leak
I have read several places about fixing a leak that sounds like the location of this picture.
They talk about a stand tube/Plug being removed under the seat to help with this leak.
Is this small shaft the leak those posts are talking about?
The only major things I've done so far are replace all the glow plugs and build a set of steps.
The only gauge that doesn't work is the temperature gauge, but some previous owner added an aftermarket one.
TA, Clutch, Brakes work fine.
Shifter started off stiff, but sprayed down all the pivots with wd40 and it works fine now.
