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.

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.
