Never ran radials on a tractor but obviously have on auto's including the days when they first came out and you felt like you lost control of your '71 Chevy station wagon tub. This tractor has rear radials and 750 -18 bias ply fronts, worn nearly smooth. The steering is powered and the tie rod ends are all tight. No apparent slop in the steering system. When running down the road, at a reasonable road speed, the front end wanders all over the road. I correct and the next thing you know you're over center and have to correct back, then over center again and on. Is this a "radial walk" that's causing this? I thought it was the front tires so I took a 3 rip set of bias 600-16's off another tractor and stuck them on for a test. It was better but still wandered. Help appreciated. Thanks, Mark
