I finally got to do some work with the Allis after all my plow days got rained out this spring. I've been wanting to try see how the duals worked. They made a huge difference. Now I run out of power before traction. I plowed and disked the "plantation" to plant sudan grass.   http://s1359.photobucket.com/user/dmckinney45/media/IMG_0224_zps07d619aa.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  [/IMG]

Looks like enough rubber on there to make that 45 walk on water. Look good though. |

WOW! That thing is wide...... I can certainly agree that you won't run out of traction.

Your WD45 is looking good all dual-ed up. Now you will need to put some more HP up front to handle the weight and rubber in the back. lol
I pull a 10' footer in third gear most of the time.

| My Great Uncle who has passed, put the big tires on front and used to run duals to open up wet muck fields. Uncle's duals only had 6" bands and weren't wide enough to tighten up. I'm happy to finally have it setup again like he would've liked it. I wish I had 8" instead of 10" bands but the price was right. The 10' disk barely covers the tracks. It pulls fine in 3rd like Don said. |

I think the floatation and traction must make it feel very different. We love the pics.. More anytime... ------------- Allis Chalmers 185, 5050, & 720. |
