To Lavoy or anyone with 520 knowledge

Post by Willyr » Tue Feb 14, 2012 8:12 pm

Ok looks as if my crawler swap will go through.

What I need to know is tractor data says the tractor is 84 inches wide. I am hoping that is with the wheels all the way out. Can some one tell me what it is with the wheels tucked in? I need to come up with a trailer for this next summer as I want to get in the parades and country tours. 7 foot wide is a odd ball unless its a deckover. The only use this tractor will see other wise is to pull a box scraper on my 1000 foot driveway.

The pics are incorrect as the owner wants to keep the wide front end for another and give me a tricycle front ( I dont mind)

You will have to have him measure the wheels to be sure, no way to tell otherwise. The treadwidth is adjustable, so you can set it anywhere you want.
Most deck between the wheel trailers have about 82" or room.
