Hire a boy to do a mans job

Did the duals cause the axle to break ? I have seen
tractors that had duals mounted snap the trumpet
right off of one side of the rear end

Back then most of those tractors, including many other brands were not designed to be dualed, they had light axles. Back in the early 60s Case had trouble with 930s, (pre64) they would snap off right at the seal.

Too much traction

paul · Jan 10, 2022

Dad had both axles snap off the IHC 300 in different years. They were too small and they were hardened wrong, they crystallized. Once was row cultivating, belly
mount 4 row cultivator. Other one was just harrowing a field, 4 section harrow. Dad was kinda slow paced so he wouldnt have stressed the tractor any extra.

Neighbor had a newer IHC, mounted corn picker, he was going down the county road in road gear when a rear axle snapped off. That had to be exciting ride.

Cant believe they dueled that one up, as weak as IHC axles were for a time.

It was probably dualed up just for the mud in the background.

Many years ago I broke an axle on the IH400 with a mounted 2ME picker on it in the middle of a wet spot in the field when the temperature was near freezing. It was not fun lifting the tractor, pulling out the broken axle and then replacing it. It took lots of blocking to hold the whole thing up. Getting the splines lined on the bull gear was the worst. I think we learned a lot of new words during that project.
