In the process of fixing one of my 2325 MMM wheels... apparently the snap ring fell off, then the washer, then the wheel shaft dropped down. Had no idea until I raised the MMM and parked the tractor, noticed the front right (pivoting) wheel was hanging down. Have no idea how that happened, but will replace washer & snap ring...

least you didn't break half the mount off deck like I did LOL
heck of a time heating, aligning, welding to get brackets close to correct angles so wheel sits where it should on cement and maintains front to rear level. mine looks odd now due to ribbon bends in mount but axle sits w/i 1/16 inch of stock now.
mine was left rear, only time I ran full throttle 4wd low range when mowing. caught wheel on landscape timber as cutting corner. didn't even really feel it. almost (7/8 was tore) fully tore one section of bracket and bent the other.

Yes, it definitely could have been worse! Currently involved with enlarging the hole in a big washer to 1" ID... Once that's done it should go back together quickly.

Out this weekend moving wood rounds and doing some flail work.
Get a lot done, can't imagine trying to move 100-200 pound rounds without.

Got a new toolbox, this is the bottom of the 56" Husky. Lifted it up on some clamp on pallet forks to install the caster. Gotta be 300+ lbs. The spec weight on the pair (top and bottom) is 542.

like most lugged tires I've dealt with they are about 1 inch shorter than r4 tires and of course little narrower. just for the use I have the added traction needed, snow/snow bank clearing as well as tilling.
r4 tires plugged up in mud and snow.

I did, made choice that works best for me in the worst scenarios.
my lawn is old cow pasture so don't care about marks.
due to way my truck and town plow interact at entrance to this private road I have to clear banks on edge of a 6 foot drop off and need traction.
lot of clay in area that r4 get messy with when tilling.
