Dad got a small jack hammer and I busted up and repoured the corner wheel for the barncleaner that broke out (pulled the studs out of the concrete) about 1 1/2 years ago (dead of winter if you do the math). Dad had it fixed to where it had a bar over the top of it and if you parked a tractor over that, it would work ok for the job. Last year for whatever reason we never got to it. Then snow came and we surely weren't gonna go several days in the winter without it, so it had to wait again.
Finally got some time where we didn't have to do some sort of field work, so I busted it out and repoured it. I made up a better anchor for the corner wheel this time. 2 6" grade 8 bolts welded to a plate of steel 3"x8"x1/2" or so thick, on the spacing needed for the base. Put that in and some wire mesh over the top of that, and those bolts shouldn't ever pull out. Gotta wait a few days for the concrete to set, and then we can put the corner wheel back in and put the chain together again. Then we'll just have to go through the rest of the corners and replace the pins and rebush the wheels before winter comes.
On to fixing the 970 wagon and my 1600's hydraulics.
