Mitch: I can see what you mean about the gate posts, even a Super C with long axcles was quite hard on gate posts. Door posts was one of my neighbors favourites. I doubt if this change over is going to be a money maker for you. My 1066 had the same axle as yours and I ran axle duals for years. Inside one on 66" centers and about 4" between the two tires. My dual hub was still about 2" from end of axle, and that made the tractor over 10' wide. I ran duals all the time, never had them off. I should correct that, actually I ran it single the first year and pulled a 25' cultivator. After the first 900 hours the tires had so many bulges you couldn't drive it at road speed. I dualed it and put on 4 new tires, and those lasted 9,000 hours. My opinion 2 tires will not stand that much hp.
