Bolt size for Model M doughnut wheel weights?
Thanks much! Wish I would've made note of the stamping on the back of the weights. Regardless, this may be an adventure as I just noticed (new tractor to me) that I have two different front wheels, one cast and one steel. Ah the joys of a 60 year vehicle.- Pete Storm

Bolt size for Model M doughnut wheel weights?

Very odd. You wouldn't think a straight M manual would be that different from an MT. Assume when I get the service manual all the details I need should be in there.- Pete Storm

1950 Model M brakes
Hi all, New guy here who just managed to find a 1950 Model M for what I consider a steal. Turns out she's been owned by the same gentleman for the past 25 years who is retired from govt work and now has a pretty good automotive business on the side so he's kept it in pretty great shape...- Pete Storm
