That's right, W (wide front) and H (high crop). I'll borrow a couple picture links from Rummy's Antique JD Tractor Page here....ANH (narrow, high crop) and AH or AWH (wide front, high crop).

I'm not sure what your tire size should be, but M.E. Miller Tire has two sizes of 40" tires listed, and may be able to point you to a source if they don't have what you need.

No, not a lot of high crop tractors were built compared to the normal row-crop or standard tread versions. (High crop tractors are still being built today.) They're intended for any application that requires the tractor to be driven over a crop without disturbing the plants much. I believe vegetable crops are the most common application, but I've seen high crop tractors set up for spraying corn fields. They seem to turn up frequently in the South, so cotton, tobacco and peanuts may also benefit from the high ground clearance (I'm not very familiar with the specifics of caring for those crops).

Hope the information is helpful.
