35 B high & low gear
Yeah, the brake drag is hit and miss. It's only happened a few times, but I haven't figured out if it happens the same way. I don't use the brakes much because it's mainly flat where I drive it, so I don't think that's the cause. The tractor seems to shift just fine when it's not running, but...- kj-32

35 B high & low gear
Yes, I do know there's 4 speeds. When driving it this weekend I purposely tried switching between all four gears and wanted to test it out a little more. Unless I'm crazy (or just a dummy), I couldn't get it to switch from high to low for a little while, but eventually did get it back to low...- kj-32

Ha. Yes. I went back and forth on which to use. Obviously I'm a novice. I better get that corrected. Thanks.- kj-32

35 B high & low gear
Forgive me if these are dumb questions or comments, but I don't know a whole lot about my tractor yet. I've had my B for about 18 months, but have only driven it a handful of times so far. It has occasionally been a slight struggle to get it in high or low gear. 1st, 2nd and reverse all seem...- kj-32

What tractors did you drive as a kids?
The three main ones were JD 4020 and 4440, and an Allis 180. Also had an Allis 7060 or 7080 for 5 years or so. Dad is retired now, but the 4020 and 180 are still on the farm and get used occasionally.- kj-32

"JD" trailer
Nothing fancy, but I made this trailer for something to pull with my B. As a kid I remember using the trailer when it had a fuel tank on it, but the frame had been sitting in the trees for probably 30 years. At some point, dad had a local welder do some work on it and part of the frame was...- kj-32

1938 Unstyled B
Good that yours runs that cool even when plowing. I've noticed quite a few tractors that don't even have the guard on them, much less the curtain.- kj-32

1938 Unstyled B
Just curious, but how many people actually ever use the curtain? Sorry if that's a dumb question, but I figured for what most people use the tractors for these days, it's just for show. I've only owned my B for a year and a half, and I had to kind of rig the curtain to get it on the rod. It...- kj-32

10 - 38 tires
I'm in Nebraska, and if I hear from someone I'll gladly ask more questions. I'm not looking for 11.2, I'm specifically looking for a 10x38 Firestone ground grip. The one I have might be 75-80 years old but still holds air. Finding another is probably a long shot.- kj-32

10 - 38 tires
I have one old 10x38 Firestone ground grip that's in decent shape and I'm trying to find a match for it. Just joining the thread in case anybody out there knows of one. I've been looking since last fall but haven't had any luck. That said, I was actually able to find a pair of 9x38 tires that...- kj-32

tire paint
I should have commented that it's not for a work tractor, just show. Yes, I was talking about something similar to Miller tire paint. Looks like they don't ship this time of year though. I've found a few other options, but seems like the most common is either just spray paint or a 5 gallon...- kj-32

tire paint
Is tire paint worth it for making old tires look better? Or is it just as simple, or maybe better, to use Armor All or another similar product?- kj-32

1935 B rear tires
It most likely isn't repairable. It's already been repaired once. I actually already have a new rim anyway, so I'm more so just wondering about the tires.- kj-32

Yes on 38. They're cutdowns. I have noticed that 36 seems to be more common, but maybe they wanted a bigger tire when they modified the wheels.- kj-32

1935 B rear tires
I'm a new first-time owner. The tractor is in good shape and probably has the original 10x38 tires, but one tire and rim need replaced. I found a pair of old style tread 9x38 tires that look to be in good shape, but I've been told that the old tires have a bumpy ride compared to newer tires...- kj-32
