I ended up restoring the original rims that came with the tractor. 4 coats of paint, 4 new sealed heavy duty bearings, new valve stems, and 2 new 3 rib Ag tires. Trying to decide if I want to leave the wider ones on there, or use these restored rims with Ag tires? Hmmmm

I like the wider tire. Have them on my 127. A good popular tire with Cubs.

I think I will mount up the Ag tires on the 70 and see how it looks. But I still like the wider ones too!

I'm sure they'll look good too! They'll go with the AG's on the rears...:beerchug:

Nice wheels that's are tough choice I like narrow rims up front but wide tires look nice and offer certain advantages nice work:beerchug:

Well.........I said I was done, but I was just taking a break! So I’m working on the dual rear wheels on my “70”. Just need to sand down, paint, and mount the tires. Just finished up painting the dual wheel spacers.

Man I want a dually setup so bad. Once I buy a deer property, that will be one of my first items is a GT with PTO so I can run a tiller for small food plots and dually wheels. Nice job!

finsruskw 09-19-2019 03:13 PM

You will constantly have wheel tracks in your freshly tilled ground w/duals.
Would not make for a very good looking till job when finished.
If anything, you will need some weight up front.
Them tillers are heavy!

Thanks! I have one rim sanded, primed, and painted. Still need to do the other rim. Just been a rough few weeks, haven’t been able to get out to the “70” lately.
Once I’m done, I will post up some finished pictures.

FYI, for those of you who didn’t know, you can NOT mount the outer dual rims/tires with the mower deck on. The outer duals hit the mower deck wheels/mounting bracket. So the mower deck must come off to mount the outer duals.

IHscout79 10-07-2019 10:36 PM

Nice work. Can’t wait to see the tractor with duels!

finsruskw 10-08-2019 09:34 AM

Dueling wheels.….
This ought to be interesting!!:bigthink:

Dually Adapter Part Numbers
 
Had a request for the part numbers for the dually adapters, end plates, and lug nut/lug bolt set. These dually adapters are made for different rim/tire combinations, so that being said, the following parts number are for the “6-12” rim/tire setup ONLY. These are the 7” option.
These are purchased through www.extrememotorworks.com.

• CC-01-001-700W (round 7” dually adapters 2 are included)
• CC-01-050 (round cover end plates 2 are included)
• CC-01-048 (Cub wheel stud/nuts 10 are included)

I hope this helps!

Dually Wheels are Installed

Finally got the dually wheels installed today! I also added valve stem extenders from the inner tires to one of the wheel weight holes so I can check both pressures from the outside wheel. One picture shows the stainless steel braided valve stem extender and a second picture of the outer rim face shows the two “Cub Cadet” valve stem caps.
