Update Narrow Front Wheel Spacing

Bill VA · Aug 15, 2022

After reading the comments on my previous post, doing a little additional reading and having a good look-see at a Farmall H at the WV State Fair, I decided to pull the front wheels all the way in on my 350. Pretty easy job after all. For some reason I thought the wheel weights and maybe front hub would have to come off, but not so. Pulled the wheel, tilted it so the 3 oclock lug fit over the hub disc in behind and then the other two lugs at 7 and 10 oclock slid right over and in behind.

This wheel change was one of the easier repairs on the farm

Pic shows before and after.

I believe the front end now has that classic Farmall look.

Thanks for all the help!

I like it. But still, keep your thumbs on the outside of the steering wheel spokes.

Looks good to me. Stay out of the mud.

Bill if your steering has any play in it, with the wheels set in, the front end may shake when you are running down the road. We set a lot of them out to help stop that.

Interesting. Our H had that wobble going down the road. I used to ride one brake for a while then ride the other one while the first one cooled. That was 65 years ago.
