mf 6140 2wd

[sparrow legs]

whats your views on this? i bought it off ebay as a 2wd 6180, ive swapped the bonnet, painted inside and added extras (mirrors, wiper, hand rails etc) and put new back wheels, wheels wrong grey i know, needs altering, may also fit a loader to her

What are those wheels on the back Mike, they ain't 'alf odd?! Stick it on a pair of UH Celtis rears and she'd be a peach, lovely with a little Joskin harrow on the back.....

doesn't look bad at all mike , but maybe the regular britain wheels not the MB Trac ones would be better ?

I can see what you are trying to do with the rear wheels, you want an outward dish for a narrow track width for round the buildings. It may be a bit too much but it isn't a bad thought by anymeans. I can't think of another one to use unless you could trip the 2640 rims down, could be a bit of work to do that and get them circular though. Looks nice all in all.

some of the wider britains tyres will fit onto those mb trac hubs mate, them with a small strip of plastic arround to cover the rubber will work a treat for the reverse hubs, what loader will you fit?? uh or britains/ siku

the wider britains godyear style ones mate, fit the hubs of the mb to the front/ back depending where you want them, then add a strip of plastic round the gaps left on the tyres( as the mb ones aint wide enough hub wise to cover the whole tyre inner) to make fake hub outer rims

she looks good mike looking forward to you mounting the loader on ;) use the UH loader
