Has anyone made their own pusher bolts for changing wheel width? I need to widen my 190xt some but am really not interested in paying $150-$200 for 3 bolts. Looks like I could make my own for a lot cheaper. ------------- 190XT Series III, D17 Series IV, D15 Series II, All Crop 66 and a whole mess of equipment. |

| Maybe you are that talented. They must be at least a grade 8 bolt and they must be machined correctly to work. |

If I sent them to you, can I trust you to send them back when you’re done? ------------- 2-8070FWA PS/8050PS/7080/7045PS/200/D15-II/2-WD45/WD/3-WC/UC/C |

| If one would machine down the end of a grade 8 bolt to the pusher bolts profile, what's left can't still be grade 8 can it ?? |

That’s what I was thinking. I just need to know the length and diameter of the bolt and diameter of the milled down shank ------------- 190XT Series III, D17 Series IV, D15 Series II, All Crop 66 and a whole mess of equipment. |

Thanks for the offer but I would be afraid I’d break one! I wouldn’t feel so bad if I break one that’s mine. ------------- 190XT Series III, D17 Series IV, D15 Series II, All Crop 66 and a whole mess of equipment. |

I found that to be an interesting question! Since I know a little metallurgy, but in a completely different arena, I looked a little bit. It looks to me like Grade 8 bolts are through hardened, whereas Grade 5’s not quite. So in that sense it seems like they would still be Grade 8. |

Better check the thread pitch. I dont know about the 190 bolts but im pretty sure the are not standard pitch on the 7000/8000 bolts ------------- 1984 80780 1957 D14 DES 300 with 25000 engine 616 tractor |

If you had a good machine shop cut down the ends of the bolts and explain exactly what you need it shouldn't change the grade if they went slow and didn't get the bolts too hot. Going back about 40 years but think we used a grinder to cut the ends down to get the hubs loose on our D19.

| I made a set for my D-19 and they worked just fine! Grade 8, coarse three. Good luck! |

I looked at mine today, grade 8, but the threads start at the base of the hex head. a bolt that long would not usually have threads the full length of the bolt. Just something to consider if you make a set. I thought I had an extra set to sell but I don't. I have a spare set of 70xx, 80xx I would part with Leon B MO ------------- Uncle always said "Fill the back of the shovel and the front will take care of itself". |

Ive got 3 lathes and I bought mine from agco. Firstly I know they will work. Secondly by the time I find fully threaded grade 8 bolts long enough,spend the time to turn them I can have 3 or 4 sets of wheels moved and if I count my time on the lathe i wont save any money ------------- 1984 80780 1957 D14 DES 300 with 25000 engine 616 tractor |

Not to mention breaking up a bunch of carbide trying to turn material that hard ------------- 1984 80780 1957 D14 DES 300 with 25000 engine 616 tractor |

| I wouldn't know where to look to find a full thread Gr8 3/4" NC bolt 6 inches long anyway. |
