What wheel tread width are most of you guys running on the 170-175 tractors, with and without loaders? Also from the factory, which way are the spokes in steering wheel oriented? Thanks, Tracy ------------- No greater gift than healthy grandkids! |

When I restored mine, I clocked the wheel with one spoke facing down so no spokes obstruct the gauges when driving in a straight line. Can't remember how it was oriented before.  ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '63 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

| Steering wheel clocking is futile. It constantly changes as you drive the tractor. The steering wheel naturally keeps turning clockwise as you turn it back and forth. Very normal and nothing you can do about it. |
