NF front axle flip
1 Attachment(s)
I’ve seen a few pictures of cubs with the front axle flipped upside down for pulling and it’s got me thinking, if I were to flip the axle on my 106 would I be able to fit larger tires on the front and Be close to the normal ride height? I picked up some 25x8x12 and 25x10x12 (I think) tires and 4 lug Honda wheels today on a trade. The tractor is mainly used for snow plowing in the winter but it’s really just something to tinker with in my free time. It has A 16hp Kohler and rebuilt clutch with a red spring from MWSC.

I don't think so. The geometry would be all wrong.

I just figured I could lower it the same way the pullers do and lift it back up with the big tires. I’ll just have to measure it and figure it out. Or has anyone ever made a costume axle from square tube and weld on spindles at desired height?

You can't flip the axle upside down, the axle won't fit in the tractor upside down with out heavy modification. Pullers use straight axles to lower the front.

It would be easier to fabricate custom spindle/kingpin assemblies with a raised spindle in the location you desire.
Hubs to accommodate rims that bolt on will require different spindles anyways. |
