Looks like those of you who use liquid do fill to more than 40%. If I could go back to last year, I'd tell the tire guy to put in 75%. He didn't charge specifically for the liquid, just 'tires and labor', the bill said. Sounds like weights are a good way to go. I think I'd like the stillness of weights over the moving liquid. Now I know for what I'm doing, I really don't need much extra weight in the back, but do like the idea of a heavy tractor that has no capability of ever lifting off the ground. I would feel better with a little more weight in the front. I had that one day working last summer, where the front end felt too light for comfort. I was driving while leaning forward with all my weight I could get further forward over the steering wheel, as if that was going to help ;) I'll have to look into front weights. I was under the impression that radials are more important to have if you do a lot of road driving, which I don't. I don't know if they are so important out working in the field? Maybe they'd last a little longer? I'm happy with the tires I got, although this is my first tractor and first set of new tires, so have nothing to compare to. Very deep treads in them and I've been able to finagle my way out of some crooked wet spots and mud spots. Thanks for all the input.

Today's Featured Article - The Mud Daubers and the Old John Deere - by Jon Zehnder. I have a 1941, John Deere Model A tractor I have owned for about a year and a half. This is my first (in case my wife reads this, "FIRST") tractor and it has been a learning experience. After considerable advise and assistance from local tractor nuts and the forums of Yesterday�s Tractors, I had finally got it running pretty well. I have tuned it up, overhauled the carburetor, installed a borrowed, rebuilt magneto, installed a new Power-Trol, patched the radiator, installed new front wheels a
