In Reply to: Tire fluid options posted by Yooper Farmall on January 28, 2011 at 11:33:47:
I push snow with my Farmall Super C -sometimes up to 20"s and will push it as high as the hood of the tractor with 7ft blade. When I had fluid in the tires with chains,no weights -it would still spin at times on ice but usually it just pushed and kept pushing. Two years ago I replaced the tires and removed the fluid -been in there 30yrs or more. One rim had a slight amount of rusting, the other was good. What I had most trouble with was condensation on the outside of the rim during spring and fall temps. It seemed that once the one rim had gotten some fluid onto the rim and even though I'd wash the rim best I could, whenever the rim would have the condesation on it, it would do a little more rusting. Once I even took it in for repair as I thought I was have leaking trouble but that's when the dealer said it was just condensation and was dry on the inside with no holes. I now use two sets of weights with chains and no fluid. The tractor seems to push just as well without the fluid. Biggest plus was no more condensation! Picts are in the photo gallery.

That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
