Glad you joined the floatation group, we need more explanation and pictures. How do you attach them on your tractor, maybe I'm due a royalty check or something. :laughing:

Thank you. Here are some pics of the mod. Please note before complaints come in, I do know the tires are facing different directions, that is because one is a right tire and one is a left tire, they are pulled off cause they are being sent away to get filled with foam. The pics are for demonstration purposes.

Here are the duals in action, had to try and explain to my better half why if there's no pics then it never happened, lol.

Looking good, I'll be waiting by the mailbox for that check.

What did you use for the spacer, looks like some kind of plastic? I can't tell from the picture, but looks like the spacer is smaller diameter than the lip on the wheel, how do you hold it from getting off center? Might not be a problem though, if it is you can fix it, look at the pictures in this thread in post #19, 20, and 21, I had to put some spacer blocks on the front ring because the lip on the wheels were different diameter on the new wheels that I got. Which tires are you filling, I have the inside tires filled with beet juice and I run the pressure on the outter wheels about 10# less than the inside ones.

How does that old phrase go now..... Oh yeah, the cheque is in the mail, lol.
I used 3/16 metal 2" wide bent and welded the ends together to fit inside the lip of the rim then a nice coat of kubota orange paint.
The rim is just snug enough to sit inside the lip and not fall out so there is no worry about it going off center.
I'm filling the inside tires then I have to figure out what psi to put in the outer cause the insides will be solid, I already got my front tires filled and they now weigh 94 lbs each, helps with countering the weight on the back a lot.

I tried looking at the pics from your earlier posts with the TBN app. but they aren't showing up, keep getting a connection error when I click where the pictures supposed to be.
