 Topic: 16" spoke front wheels
Posted: 03 Apr 2011 at 9:37pm |
Did you guys see what this set is selling for? You know if I cleaned and painted one of my sets they would probably sell for about $50 knowing my luck.

Hey, Lonnie, I was wondering about those cutoffs. Is that offset normal on WC wheels? I'm not a WC person, so I don't have a clue.

Larry, those are offset alot, mine are centered, I would think it would put more strain on the bearings that way.

It almost looks like the outside spokes were a little short, and the inside spokes had lots of length. Interesting set up.

I showed them to Larry yesterday morning. They are insane!! Makes me feel good about the set I picked up, even if they might need new rims.

I saw the selling price was lower, but didn't understand why. They still sold pretty well. The seller did well by having them on spindles and a bolster. I think that was a smart thing to do.

Hell yeah, LOL I am sure you can weasel a couple a bucks outta me in a few weeks, lol really looking forward to coming up in your territory, can wait to get me a pull behind plow and a drawbar, heck, me and the wifes grandpa might just have to have a plow day for the hell of it, lol he has an unstyled B, 2 WD's a WD45, and 10 of everything else, hes like 93 and never sold anything, talkin tractor lights up a fire in the old mans heart, i wish i could live closer to him just to suck up some of that knowledge... He was a worker for JD for nearly most of his life, as well as a postal worker in Cleveland, and ran the farm when the brothers went off to the war. Helluva guy, makes me feel smart just being able to talk with him, ha ha....I wish i could retire 3 times in my lifetime.
