Okay, Okay. It Worked

[Allan in NE]

Sure flattened those rear tractor tires for a little while, but that hitch seemed to work just fine. :>)

I thought you was gona use that M to move round bales . Did`nt know you was puttin together a portable bumper jack !!

 

[bradley martin]

Now you won't need a jack to change the wide front back to the NF!!

If lifting the rear of a pickup flattened the rear tires of your M, you might consider increasing the air pressure (in the tires). In the rears of my tractors I run about 25 psi air on top of liquid. Works pretty good.

Time for some of those nice cast iron front wheel weights... or maybe a weight bar and some suitcase weights.

Quite the process to turn an M into a 560, eh?

Where's the M&W hand clutch for live pto?

Naw,

Allan,

That sure is one nice looking M!

 

[John M]

Id have to go look, but my M would squat down like that with a 7ft bushhog onthe back, went up tothe next ply rating. Doesnt do it nearly as bad now. Im wanting to say I went from 4 plyu to 6 ply, but I was lucky and the parts tractor we had, had a very good set on it. The older gentleman we got it from used this particualr M for pulling a trailer and didnt think it needed the 6 ply tires on it.

Allan,
Nice looking M you have! Veiwing the surroundings in the pictures I thought you would have more snow in your area.

Sure ain't much of a bulge on the fronts.

 

[Leland]

If you are still planning on hauling bales on the rear I would find a way to hang some iron on the front of that beast .

 

[Oldmax]

Allen I see you have the right idea . If you own truck of that brand you have to have something to haull of pull it with . My son owns one & I have had to haull it in more than a times than I can remember. With a Nisson & a 16' Utility trailer . Sorry but just had to get that in. the last time was trans cost about $1900 to fix .

How old is your son.....I was a young son years ago......I still see young fellers ripping the gears up...automatics go backwards and jerk it in forwaed...burn the tires off..ream them out hand shifting....

Then to hear Daddy tell the story those truck ant worth a dam..........

 

[Old Iron]

I take this thread as a cue, for some of us to say,.... "WE TOLD YOU SO"! LOL

The Saginaw 3pt. is a darn good option.
