Hi,

I read in one of the Farmall books (can't remember
which one, sorry) that it initially had more to do
with being able to steer the tractor in the field,
particularly if the NFE got into a rut or a furrow
- the dual front wheels, angled towards each
other, helped the tractor "climb" out of ruts
rather than getting bogged down in them... Makes
sense on paper...
