Mike, I have watched you buy, ask questions, and make a nice little tractor to enjoy. Most of the people critisizing you obviously grew up on a pretend farm. I would leave the fluid in the tires, it will give you more weight and stability on the rear end, again, anyone who has had any time in the seat of a tractor knows that. You can run any tractor in road gear with loaded tires, I have logged several hundreds of road miles with loaded tires, with NO problems. 46 years ago I started riding on a 1951 M with my dad and anyone who was born and raised on a farm has been in that same position.
And for the one who want to call the cops, you can call the Menard county, Illinois sherrif department Sunday afternoon and tell them there is a 51yr old fat man on a 1946 IH B 1/4 mile west of Fancy Prairie, Il with his 5 year old grandson on the tractor with him going down the road in 2nd gear at half throttle at about 3-5 mph. See how hard they laugh at you. Mike, you been here long enough to know that 10% of the people give you 90% of the answer with knowledge and the other 90% just like to see their name in print and post things they have no clue on. Good luck with your new tractor. I see nothing you did wrong to get everybody to get their tales all twisted out of shape and ridicule you.
Jim
