In Reply to: 1466 wheel wedges posted by Moline_guy on June 09, 2014 at 11:23:15:
Well I got them moved in, I didn't have the wedge tools, nor could I find a picture of what they look like, but I was able to get the inside wedge loose with hammer and a big feakin punch and then a took a piece of baler bar pipe and stuck it in between the inside loose wedge and the axle housing with a piece of iron wedged against it so I didn't crack it. I heated the wedges and let them cool for a while, thinking this might loosen the rust. I ran the bolt in the loosening direction with a big breaker bar, (didn't have a big impact wrench), then I beat the hel out of the top of the axle with a hammer and the other wedge popped loose. I used a porta power to push the wheel in to within an 1 1/2 inch of the cab. It is not quite centerd on the row but its the best I can do with 20.8-38's. I repeated the process on the other side. Thanks for all your help and information, should be ready to spray 30" corn tomorrow. I would have liked to widen the tractor to straddle 3 30" rows, but my sprayer doesn't go that narrow. So sprayer straddles 4 rows and tractor straddles 2. Tractor will work for mowing hay, but I won't be able to bale with it this way. It is my first year for 30" corn, I have always been 36".

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
