I am attempting to get the front end of my 52 A to sit lower than it does for pulling purposes. Right now it has 650/16 tires on it... should I just look to get smaller tires to fit the rims or would the rims (if any smaller in diameter) from a B or other model bolt right up to the hubs on my A? Thanks for any advice

Dane

Front rims from a late (H) , will also fit.15" and narrow, with a STRAIGHT PEDESTAL, no roll-matic do the job.

Friend of mine pulls a G he swapped some 5 bolt trailer hubs onto his tractor with 14" rims with 18.4-34 rear tires looks funny but pulls like all get out

I guess my next question would be dies anyone have any leads on where I could get ahold of either of these items? Either B rims/tires or the straight pedestal as Mike mentioned. Thanks fellas

A friend of mine has a 50 that he pulls. He cut the centers out of Farmall Cub and welded his centers in them. That dropped the front end down a good bit.

If your A has a Rollamatic, consider switching to a non-Rolamatic (straight) front shaft/pedistal. You'll lose 50# and drop the front about 2" or so.

Yes, 15" rims from an older B will bolt right up.
