I hope the pic of these wheels gets uploaded with this message. Can anyone identify the implement that these wheels belong to? Whatever it is, it's ground-powered and adjustable height.

Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see

My Dad had a JD 100 corn picker and it had a LH spoke wheel but I don't remember it being height adjustable or having a sprocket to drive a chain. I agree on the windrower wheels.

They are off of binder/windrower/canvas draper, the machine used to cut oats and put them in windrows for the combine with a canvas pickup to get them into the combine. That's what my dad used the machine for and I'm 40 years old. These wheels were used while pulling through the field. Grandpa had a homemade hitch and rear axle for the machine to make it narrower to pull to other fields 5 miles away. Actually have a pair here I was going to use for a wagon/cart for behind the garden tractor, 4.00 X 19 tire if I remember right. chris

Maxwell and Ellis are probably both right about Deere using the basic wheels and hubs for different applications, but the question now is narrowed down to "What uses those sawtoothed bars that appear on each wheel?"

The sawtooth was for setting the cutting height of the bar/sickle, there was a crank with a worm gear roll pinned to it that mated with the sawtooth. chris

looks kinda like the left side wheel on my 1948 John Deere 100, 1 row corn picker!!!

guess they used the same wheels and tires on many different pieces of equipment back then,

They are exactly the same wheels and hubs that I have on a John Deere model 4B plow. I don't know what the sawtooth pieces are. It looks like a lifting hub on the back of the left wheel in the photo. John Deere probably used the same wheels for various applications. Ellis

I"d go with the binder idea- IH used a similar design on the platform side, a bull (drive) gear on the other.

I think JD grain swathers had wheels that adjusted like that with a crank. But the one with gears could have run the reels---maybe. I know mu uncle bought a new Case swather in late 40s and that had chain run from wheel to reels. In real heavy and tall straw the whole thing would skid the wheel. The canvas and cycle was run by pto.

You know....I think you're onto something with the swather angle. I remember the auctioneer referring to them as "windrower" wheels but I didn't think he knew what he was talking about. A swather is also called a windrower, right?

I'll take your word for it, but I've not seen a picture of a binder with this type of wheel. Probably just haven't been looking at the right pictures.
