You guys make me feel lucky except for the time dad was pulling wagons to the elevator. Pulling with the tractor had a flat/blow out don't know which. He didn't see it turned the corner back wagon got on the gravel shoulder and sunk enough he couldn't pull the 2 of them with the 856. Called home for blocks and a jack with spare tire. That year we ha d some trouble with tires on wagons so had most of the stuff in the back of the pickup already. He had looked and said to bring 2 spares for which wagons. I got there and had to jack the one wagon up from below ground level. When I got it up so I could see it all there was left was the hub on the spindle. Took a good hour to get that one up so I could get a tire on it. Had to start with jakc on the box rail not the axle. then block and add blocks under the jack and so on till I could get under the axle other tire when I jakced it up thought I was going to tip the wagon over it sort of balanced on the jack till I could move another jack under further over. The reason I never liked those little wagon tires and bought running gears. When truck axles were so much tougher and tires so much heavier and bigger. Our biggest gravity wagon has a truck frame and axles under it. Weighs in around 27,000 or a bit more loaded not big by today's standards but still must weigh about 14,000 on the front axle with single tires on it and over the last about 40 years I've had to replace a couple front tires. 900-20's that were on the truck when I stripped it out for the wagon. Still some of the original tires on there. Tires were probably 30-40 years old when I got the truck I think some of them said rayon on the sidewall.
