I occasionally see tractors at auctions far away from me.
Transporting can be tough over long distances and borders.
I have seen neighbours buy newer high speed tractors far away and simply fly there and drive them home. The craziest was 1000 miles. Yes, tires wear. But sometimes, especially with very large equipment transporting logistics can be a lot to unravel.
Say a Massey 1105 is what I want to buy. Top speed is about 17 mph at wide open.
The thought of travelling any distance wide open is exhausting.
Crazy idea?
Anyone ever make a pto driven wheel that could be coupled to the 3 pth and lowered to drive the tractor, given proper gearing and simply have the transmission in neutral?
I have driven tractors fast and I know it is dangerous. I simply want to go about 20 mph but at half rpm, not wide open.
you guys get me?
The wheel could be spring loaded like a motorcycle swingarm is or simply by the weight of the 3 pth and the gearbox and drive wheel.
Thanks, crazy, just for discussion. It could be built and fit various tractors.
