Just wondering cause I am after sourcing one , but I find that the rear tyres look very skinny & what to change them!! Sorry Justin, I've only just seen your post. Yes they are the tyres off a UH 135 fitted to the atlas rims, would like to fit the uh centres at some point as they are nicer detailed but haven't had the courage to try to remove the fronts yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SHAWN Posted October 27, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2018 Been a little while since I've had time to do any model conversions or modifications, and after a trip to toytrac I've been inspired to start tinkering again, so thought I'd try my hand at making a Ford 7810 2wd and fitting a more realistic linkage 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those wheels are excellent for it I feel the itch in my fingers to get going again, haven't been able to do much this month sadly. Although I have been making plans! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 is it ?? cant say i have seen any like that while i was looking arround . will have a look at the lever and see if i can see the notch tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegreen Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Thought I would post up this picture of three UH Ford 7810 wheels, the bottom right grey wheels are the UH originals, the top ones are Official New Holland Bianco white which I mistakenly thought would be the right colour...…………………..And the bottom left wheels are Agriline Ford Off white, which are spot on and cover the wheels beautifully...……………...incidentally the Imber 6640 series model wheels are a perfect match for the Agriline colour off white. My 7810 model is now looking just right 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 ok wil lsort that out,was thinking about a cab to,seeing as its restored why not, guessing it would be blue rather than white on it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super6 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Blue or yellow if you can find either one, good luck with that, never seen a white one. They are different to the 6x cabs as they are not so tall, but these do fit and are, relatively, easier to find. I'm pretty sure someone does the Fordson cab in a white resin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 i may well just get a good repo one and spray it blue ,it won't really matter on it as its fully restored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janval Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 My 362 arrived today, it was a lot smaller than I expected Might have to rethink things, the wheels I ordered might be a "bit" too large Even so, exciting to see what I can make of it! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Been playing around with some new rears for my UH MF 690 as the originals look terrible. I have fitted some Imber 40 series wheels which are alot deeper. They seem to suit alot better. Just needs details in the hub and wheel nuts with some black just waiting on it to dry completely. The silver wasn't completely matching as all i had to hand was a Hyundai Silver but works alright Exhaust also needs sorting as came broken. Also the small layouts its sat on need joining properly with a hedge to hide the gap 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Well I used to see Ford tractors pulling blue marstons locally and one or two had a grey chassis and silver wheels, and seeing as it would be very difficult to find blue spray paint for the plastic chassis to match the painted trailer colour I decided to go with the grey option. And I had an unused can of light grey spray which looks about the right shade too. I will look to add some extra details as it will be used alongside my very well detailed Replicagri Brimont trailers 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not the perfect wheel for a Clayton, but there are not many places you can get 20 wheels of that size for a reasonable price 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
