Model A Roll-O-Matic

[spowers]

I have a 1950 model A and the front wheels/tires are not lined up properly. The left wheel/tire sticks up in the air a couple of inches higher than the right one and maybe an inch or two towards the rear of the tractor more than the right one? This leaves the right one supporting basically all of the weight. Tires are same size and air pressure is the same. Any other ideas on the cause of this? Thanks.

A few years back my dad's A would do that and inside the Roll-O-Matic mechanicism are some teeth that were dry and binding. We lubed them good and no more trouble. Could be other scenarios going on also (some foreign material). I hope this helps.

Sounds like problems with the gears inside the ROM.
If someone had it apart and didn't get the gears back in time, that could be the problem.
Or if the gears have become broken and they are hanging up.

Im with the other guys sounds like its locked up with maybe a broken gear tooth or its dry. I would look at a manual and take it apart to see whats going on. The gears has timing marks on them.I beleive if you tear it apart you will find your problem. Good luck.
