Once again curiosity has bitten me! We have a handful of "professional" collectors around here, and one thing I see a lot of. When they are moving a basket-case, whether loading it on a truck, or just relocating it, I notice one or both drive wheels will be locked up solid. I'm wondering what is causing this. Could the axles be rusted that tight to the housings? Or would the brakes be seized up after sitting for an extended period of time? The reason I'm asking is, I have a 1949 JD A(Dad's only NEW tractor), and I want to prevent that from happening to that tractor. It does run, and it is stored inside. Need I be concerned?
