john deere 70 with wide front

[gary in neb.]

put a wide front (round tube) on my 70 and noticed it turns shorter one way than the other. of cource the side it dont turn short on is to the right so for planting i'd have to back up. is there an adjustment for the stop? i checked to make sure i was not off a tooth or that the bolts were not straight across and that seems to all be good.
thanks
Gary

Gary,

Have not noticed mine turning different one way or the other. Have heard that the round tube wide front does not turn as short as the square one. Mine is square . I have tricycle and wide front tractors row crop and standards. If you want the shortest turning radius go with the tricycle front.

Sure like the wide front tractors though.

Gary make sure the tie rods are put together the right way. If not they will hit the axle, they will on my square axle. Jim
