She’s right though so thought I’d better get on! thats why i do my stuff in the shed, she rarely goes out there be even more secure when i finish the new one ,so more power tools i think 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillTEF20 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Too much on the go at the moment! Lots of wet mornings and days over harvest has lead to lots of started projects! The 6930 is finished just requires paint along with the JD mowers, Opico mobile dryer started, Richie bale squeeze needs painting. Revisited an old build the Bailey TB12 grain trailer that also needs painting! Also started another hedge cutter build this time a McConnell tele-vfr hopefully ! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret90 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I've been thinking about this for ages, are these too big???? They are 14x30 s off an imber 5640 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) If they fit under the arches I'm sure someone has put them on the real tractor Ted. I'd be more concerned that you have 8 wheel nuts instead of the majors 6 Is she getting a replacement engine as well?

SPN Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Them's 14x34s on the 5640. Scaledown do 14x30s and 15x30s for the Major, with 6 stud wheels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I would like to put something else in there but the 6cyl Conversions are longer so I'm not sure how I would go about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of modified majors would have had the rears off a JCB 3c but it might be cheaper getting a pair of scaledown ones than buying the britains JCB for it's tyres if you wanted to go down that route. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
