13.6 x 26

Any body have any use for them there mounted on eight hole rims. I took them off a Gleaner Combine. I built a four wheel skidder years ago out off a veneer ditcher. Then later in years I made hub adaptors so I could run the 13.6 x 26 tires to get better ground clearance. I still have the tractor and as I had tire problems from Locust thorns I always had back ups . There free if your close to Lima Ohio. My mother-in-law past about two months ago and after helping to clean her house out I took a look at my sheds. After 50 some years of keeping stuff I figured it was time to clean up. I also have a number of spockets if your looking for something special I may not have it but go ahead and ask :D. Ive forgotten roller chain sizes but I believe I have some number 60 and 80. All is free just don't want to see what I call good stuff go to the scrape yard. All is pick up only and I would hold it for anyone if there going to the pig roast. About seven miles east of state route 127 which is on the way for few of you.

Thanks Sawmill Man for everyone else it use to be a M465 Vemeer ditcher and backhoe with a boring attacment. It had a V465 Wisconsin and it work fine but in the summer it would vapor lock. So I put in a 300 Ford inline six. Don't remember what size tires it had but they were real wide. Made hubs and put on the 13.6 x 26 combine tires. Added a warn winch ran with a char -lin hyd.motor after a few years I got tired off dragging cable and made a grapple for it. Real big logs always hooked to the small end it would pull 400 bd. ft. You had to be careful on tight turnes because the four wheel drive would climb up and would flip the tractor. Only major problem I ever had, I was pulling a tree length ash tree and caught a stump in the skid trail and broke it right behind the articulating had one H of a time getting it loaded and back home . Welded it back togather finished the job and went out and bought my C7T treefarmer before I killed myself with it. Made a living with that little machine for years but you had to know the limits. Far as small tree logging it will do the job bigger timber it still will but you better have common sence and learn the limits of the machine.
