RC Vs WC weight

[mhfm]

Can anyone tell me the difference in weight between a RC and WC Allis?

Look here:
Tractor Data

Perfect example as to why Tractor Data is usually WRONG!!!!!!!! Lists the WC at 3300 lbs, which may be close, lists the RC at 4005 lbs. Basic difference between the two is that the RC has a C engine/radiator in it- which is smaller and LIGHTER than the WC 201 engine.

The difference is steel wheels versus rubber tires. In test #303, the steel-wheeled WC weighed 3,175. In test #316, the rubber-tired RC weighed 4,005 pounds. A rubber-tired WC would come it at about 4,500 pounds.

I'd like to think it isn't "WRONG!!!" but just not clear enough as to where the data is coming from. In any case, I'll have it fixed when I get home tonight.

A WC with rubber weighs far less than 4500#. That must be with fluid vs without.

but i think the finals are lighter in the rc, and there is no outboard support on the pinion gear.

my 1936 wc with 14.9x24 tires and spocked rims with fluid weights around 3,500 lbs. depending on how much fuel is in the tank. shipping weight for a 1947 wc was listed around 2,900 lbs.

Here"s the best that I could come up with. I reference three separate sources, including Wendel and Swinford.

--WC--
2,700 shipping on steel
3,300 shipping on rubber
4,545 ballasted on rubber for test #303

--RC--
2,495 shipping on steel
3,204 shipping on rubber
4,005 ballasted on rubber for test #316

my rc on rubber, with rear wheel weights, came in at 2990 on the scale this past sunday.
