I think the deal is that you can put the lighter formed steel center F-12 and F-14 steel wheels on an H and get away with it, but you gotta tighten them down on the axles really carefully to make that larger hub squeezes down on the smaller H axle okay. Buddy of mine has his H with those style wheels on it. I had a set of the regular steel wheels with the heavy cast centers for an H that we had used years ago on our H's on the farm where I grew up. We used them in the wintertime skidding logs in the woods mainly and they still were in really nice shape. When I "bailed out" of farming in 1984 I sold the steel wheels to an amishman who was gonna broach the hubs out to 2 3/4 inches and put them on his M. He was so happy to get them he literally "ripped" the 200 bucks out of his wallet I charged him for them. His hands were actually trembling a little. He said he'd worn his original steel wheels on his M to where there was literally nothing left of the rims and just couldn't find another set with the cast centers that could be fitted for his M for years. I guess that could happen in 30-40 years of hard everyday use. Nowdays you see all sorts of "Rube Godlberg" steel wheels fitted on amish owned tractors.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
