Alright, so I have a few questions about running gear...
I posted this first picture of my running gear on here before, looking for a manufacturer, but there was a lot of mixed-emotions about it, and we all kind of decided that it must be a David Bradly, but I was fumbling around on the internet today and found this particular ad showing a Dearborn 21-2 Wagon, and to me it is IDENTICAL!! You can even see on mine where the front bolster was, and at some point was removed...
Have a look and tell me what you think! Are they the same?
Also, if it is indeed a Dearborn 21-2, who made it? Electric wheel co?
Next question would be, someone has made mine so that it isn't telescopic anymore, and I want it to be shortened up a little bit, and then I want to put a deck on it. I at that point don't care if the length can be changed, BUT as it is right now, it doesn't have a way for it to flex, so if you go over a little bump, one wheel comes off the ground. Soo, what can I do to make it flex?
I have been looking at some of the pictures online, and I think I have a solution, but I want to see what you guys think..
Say for example, the tube they welded in is 2 inch, if I were to cut in nicely in the middle, then slide a 3 or 4 foot section of the next bigger pipe over each half, then put the halfs back together with the 3 or 4 foot section of pipe, not welded, just sitting there.
Next, I found a way to cut an oval shaped hole in each end of the bigger pipe, and I cut through the smaller pipe as well, and then put a grade 12 bumper bolt and nylock nut on each end?
Then, the larger hole in each end would allow the wagon to flex as needed, and would still be plenty strong enough for a load?
Next, it says in the add that the may payload is 5000LBS, does that seem like a safe load to haul, provided that the tractor can handle it? Thanks, sorry it is a little long, but remember, I am just a kid, and kids ask a LOT of questions, or at least my mom says so... :) Bryce

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: 1964 JD 2010 Dsl - Part 2 - by Jim Nielsen. Despite having to disassemble the majority of my John Deere 2010's diesel engine, I was still hopeful I could leave the engine-complete with crankshaft and camshaft-in the tractor. This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal. As a resul
