I got the 70 narrow done in time for the show (today was the show) but it rained all day and didn't want it sitting out. I decided not to take it down. Oh well I have it done for the next one and also was able to get the miniature running gear and hayrack done as well. Thought I would show pictures of the final product (besides some minor stuff)

I guess it is too big of picture. If anyone wants to shrink it down Ill send it to you

What size rear tires are those? What did you do to make them work?

Looks good how did u get the rear tire to work.

The rear tires are 6-12 off of a David Bradley's. The tires did slightly clear the fenders once they got tucked under the fender lip. I was worried about them still hitting if they got filled with mud or whatever. To help this issue and not cut the fenders from the pan I just installed 1/2 inch bushings on top of the tranny where it mounts to the frame. This lowered the trans/axle down and made me feel better about it. To install that style wheel on this tractor I found rear hubs off of sears, or wheelhorse (Im sure there is more) that had 1 inch shaft size and they slide on and have a keyed slot and set screws. All the mods on this tractor went very smooth and was pretty easy. If you have any other questions just ask.

I am new to this forum and just found this and have to say that that thing is really cool. I like the dual wheels and the narrow front end alot! Jake

Thanks Jake, the front is bolted on just like the original so it can always be switched back.
