WHNJ701 4,165 #1 Posted August 3, 2019 as tractor collectors restorers etc.. we tend to accumulate extra parts. I have a stacks of front rims with no idea if they are correct for certain models?? front rims on project tractors as we know maybe miss matched or wrong. I thought this might be a good chance or we could come up with a guide to put together some sort of reference with model/year. maybe this way we could be able to pass off or trade front rims to whoever needs them. ideas thoughts?? 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,590 #2 Posted August 3, 2019 I like it. Sorted by size, width, number of holes, something like that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,905 #3 Posted August 3, 2019 Great idea! Funny thing, both RJ’s came with later model front wheels. I think I like the extra meat up there... though I have no idea what they really came from! They look like the Charger /60’s-70’s fronts to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1977 6,664 #5 Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) Tub trailer wheels didn't holes they are 3" wide the hub width was 4 1/2". Not sure of the hub widths on the early model tractors, the later models used 3 3/4" hubs. Edited August 5, 2019 by Lee1977 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m thinking I’ve heard of people using trailer wheels on rjs and that they are the same as those that came on rjs. Don’t hold me to that though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moe1965 738 #7 Posted August 8, 2019 Just an additional question. Do tires with wheel horse lettering hold higher value? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
