Rubber was an option for those rakes - but the steel wheels were much more common.
I was lucky enough to find a parts rake that was in tough shape - but had the two brand new tires on it.
Lucky because they aint cheap!
You CAN buy them from miller - but I think they're around 300 per tire.
There's some confusion ( in my head anyways) about these tires - the ones I have are from a polish company ... just can't remember the name right now - which I heard were a cheaper alternative - but try as I might, I could never find a source for them, and have no idea if they're still in business...

(having stumbled across the parts rake, I stopped my research there into the tires).
So - more than you asked, but in case anybody else is looking for tires...
I've found a few other rakes with tires, but all are old and torn.
So the WHEELS for tires are out there if you're ever looking for some - but expect some pain when it comes to actually putting tires on them.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
