Farmall C, 9 bolt hubs????

[Doug Rosenbauer]

Besides weld on or the $1100 hubs that are made by a few shops for Farmall C's, what other options do I have? Was told a Minnie Mo R had 9n bolt hubs that work. Does anyone have some of the MM R hubs? Any other options?

MM r hubs are nine bolt. I believe the
axle is the same size I would have to
measure to make sure. The key way on th mm
hub is 3/4 and the ih c is 1/2? You would
need a machine shop to make a step key for
you. I'm in central mn and would have a
set of mm r hubs.

What is wrong with the cast centers that came on them with a rim clamped to the casting, like the H and M had? I know the axles are not the same but the concept is the same.

Would axles and hubs from IH 240 Utility get you close to what you want? I believe they are 8 bolt though.

Any reason you can't find a set just bigger than your axles and bush/shim to fit? gm

I had a set of MM hubs on my C puller. I don't remember which MM they came off of though. The keyways are different sizes so you would have cut a custom key.

Weight for pulling.

Thought about that, it will be my last option.

I think they came off of a MinnieMo R or RTU if people have given me good info.

I would be interested in them. You can text/call me at 4one9-23six-0five00. Thanks

Make one or two from a weldment . Or Cast new ones from old one if you have a casting house near you.

ound a pair of 9 bolt MM R hubs to put on my Farmall C. Should have them tomorrow. Aware that I need to have a step down key made. My questions are:
1] Is it a straight 90 degree cut from 3/4 to 1/2 in a T shape or is there a small taper on the C shaft I need to worry about?
2] Is there diagrams that show spec on c axle shaft showing keyway depth etc?
3] Am I overthinking this?

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!!!!!!

#3 - You're overthinking this.

Get the hubs. Put them on the axels. See what you need. Make what you need.

I guarantee you that nobody is thinking about it that much. They get a hunk of key stock, put it in the vise, and go to town with an angle grinder until it fits.
