Wanted to pick some allis buffs brains here, I know they made D-10,12,17, and 19 high crops, but... did they make a d-14 or d-15 FACTORY high crop? Not a Thompson conversion? I've seen the 10, 12, etc. factory ones, but have never saw a 14 or 15 factory high crop. Thank you in advance for any light shed on this subject. |

| Our D15 II has "tall" fenders that set above the tires (fender bracket it taller). Also a short extension on the footrest to move the front fender brace out a tad (to allow for the longer rear axle housing). |

The D-10 . D-12, D-14, D-15, and D-17 to series III had a HIGH CLEARANCE option as shown in the pictures above. D-17 IV and D-19 could be had as true High Crops. The D-17IV HIGH CROP had taller final drives and the D-19 HIGH CROP had final drive drop boxes. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

Did the wd45 1955 and up have this same rear wheel as an option on the high crop models? Thanks! Andrew Gubbels ------------- Andrew Gubbels Gubbels Restoration |

Andrew. The parts book shows a disc wheel for 38" fixed rims as an option for the WD-45. The Oxnard conversions have the standard 28" power shift center and rim with spacers welded to a 38" rim. I have never seen anything to show that a WD-45 was ever available with a 38" power shift wheel like the D series. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |
