  • Well I would have never thought it when I first got the TW that she would be heading to the UK's Premier Agricultural show! But she is going to be on the Tama stand, which is in hall 12 stand 364. Myself, Mukka and Wes aka Onelonlyfarmer will be on stand for a couple of hours from 11am both days, come and say hi and have a butchers at the TW and the latest Tama products including there new Impax twine that I demonstrate with the Ford TW in an upcoming video. I think you'll agree that D&S Factors made a fantastic job of the wheels, contact them if you need your wheels sorting out www.dsf.co/dsf/

    Growing up on the farm in Devon, for the cold starts in the depth of winter, father would put a big blanket over the bonnet, with mothers blow heater from the bathroom. 10 minted of hot air the old 165 would start easily. Saved on draining the battery.

    😅Fantastic job George,
    But, for those that don’t want quite such a professional/costly job done, I found that Hammerite white smooth is a very close match and can be hand painted and/or aerosol sprayed on Ford wheels.
    Being slightly off white, it is a very close colour match and that Hammerite paint will take a lot of punishment too.

    The best luck I have had with wedges is to put the pusher bolts in and tension, then using the draw bolts backed out just a couple of turns , smack the draw bolts vs trying to use a punch on the small thin edge of the wedge. This also minimizes the chance of putting a mushroom dimple in the wedge.

    @super6954 5 місяців тому

    Thanks for the video, those wheels look sharp , maybe you could get somebody to color match the blue on the hubs and smarten them up a bit, they kinda spoil the front wheels now. My guess is they used those hubs like that for row crop here in North America. I'm thinking you get the coarse adjustment on the P.A.V.T rims then get the fine adjustment on the axles if needed then you can change widths quickly between different jobs , without having to take wheels off and swap sides or turn dishes and stuff. Those style hubs are a pain if some clowns wound the pull bolts in and snapped them off in the hub before a new owner buys it. Don't ask how I know about it with an 1135 Massey with axle hub duals on as well L.O.L Take care.

      @@GeorgeSaunders here in Maine we have either calcium, which rots the rims and burns the field when you pop a valve stem. Or beet juice which is really expensive but safer. Last time I had it put in was almost the cost of a new tire. Thinking of switching over to wheel weights so I can dump the extra weight and lighten the tractor as much as possible in really wet years when the ground is spongy during haying…

    Hello, I bought 10 wheel weights for my Ford. How are they installed correctly? Does the rubber washer have to be on the side of the nut or on the side of the square? and how is the first weight attached to the rim? screw with a little longer and something else comes up? Would appreciate an answer very much.

    • @GeorgeSaunders
      @GeorgeSaunders  4 місяці тому

      Hi I'm not sure about correctly but mine are installed like this. The first weight is bolted on as normal but before you do that put the square headed bolts in the holes on the first weight. So when you've put the first weight on you should have the 3 bolts sticking out so that you can slide the next weight on and so forth. Hope that helps 👍
