660 dual tires

Posted by Wardner on November 24, 2006 at 22:20:39 from (206.148.20.68):

My parts book has the dual tire adaptors listed. There appears to be a very heavy drum and a spacer with pie crust edges that slips over it. My tractor is equipped with the correct wheel that these pieces mount to.

I am wondering in what part of the country the dual tire adaptors were used. In other words, where would I start looking? I would appreciate an estimate on rarity.

On the whole, is this a good idea? Will the tractor understeer? Will I start to break things in the axle or planetary hub dept?

Does anyone have pictures of the parts? The parts book illustration confuses me. It looks like the rims are different from the two I already have. Mine have lugs riveted to the rim whereas the illustration shows M type lugs (clamps) but only used on the outside rim.

Moreover, it appears that the inner tire and rim are not moved inwards. In fact, there is no room if the fenders are to remain. Total width of the tractor must be outrageous when the tractor is equipped with duals. I am thinking 11-12 feet overall. It currently has stock 18.4-34 tires. I'll never be able to put it on a trailer and be legal without an escort and permits.

I like unusual stuff; particularly in the attachment area. This tractor already has an Elwood FWA with loaded tires and weights.
