The only way to not have frost heave is have not dirt under the door and a concrete footer that goes below frost line along with a french drain with pea gravel . Dry dirt can't freeze and heave . So what ever your frost depth is in your area go deeper then it and poor a concrete Tee apron , what i am talking about here is a concrete pad extending out away from the building with aslight down ward slope to keep water running away from the door area and a two foot wide footer that goes down below frost line as to what you think is the frost line NORMALLY plus the french drain on the outside of the footer to help keep moisture away and extend that apron on into the building . So you keep your snow removal toy in side so you will probably keep the drive to the building as snow free as possible and by doing so allow the frost to go deeper then the rest of the area . One learns alot over the years . We have had learning experiences over the years with buildings . That trick was given to me by a friend that had a super nice pole building as a shop where he ran his diesel engine rebuilding operation out of . his MOTO was it only costs a dollar more to go first class the first time .

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
