Took about four hours to complete this wide front conversion. Of course I much help from the owner operator. He's trying it out now.

Dave, Looks good!!! I think your tractor driver is headed for the field. LOL
Is that a three bolt or a four bolt front end?

Great idea Dave.
I have a new WD-45 in the box that is going to the youngest granddaughter.
I should look at making it a wide front.
How difficult was it to convert?

The conversion was really east. I ordered the wide frount , mounting blocks and steering shaft all from Potters Farm Toys. I just told him what I wanted and He made the steering shaft for it. I painted the frount end with Valspan Restoration  spray paint and reused the original wheels. The hardest part was getting the painted screws out to split it in half.
