Obvious mistakes are made......apparently in haste to get the product out the door. Years ago I was an understudy salesman at the local John Deere dealer. One day the head sales guy had me take a new 4240 tractor to the local tire store to get the rear tires loaded. I got the thing out on the road and it handled terribly and vibrated like something was out of balance. I stopped as soon as possible, bailed out of the cab and looked the thing over.........The cause of the trouble was very evident, one rear tire/rim was mounted crooked, part of the rim was secured to the center in the narrow rim setting and part secured to the wide setting, resulting in about an 8 inch wobble of the outer wheel tread. How it was never seen and fixed during the runout check, loading and delivering of the tractor is beyond me......."Skip to my loo at Waterloo, it's quittin' time".....

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.
