Have looked at buying a TX63 on 650 tyres. This makes the combine 11ft wide and I need to get it down to 10ft 6" if possible for road access Has anyone done this and how TIA
There is not room as there is a deep dish on the centresSwap the front tyres, side for side?
62 and 64 are 8" narrower than 63 and 65 have measured 64 and it is 11ft 1" wide main access road from farm to field narrows to 10 ft 10"we had a tx 65 on 650 tyres and it was 10"5 wide
I once used a company in North Wales (I think) I delivered the wheels up there, they lathed the dish out and re wielding it where I requested.There is not room as there is a deep dish on the centres
these combines all have the same dimension the only differance is the tyres and rims to alter the width so it most be the rims but i would of though you can swop side to side a tx 65 on 800 tyres is 11"2 wide62 and 64 are 8" narrower than 63 and 65 have measured 64 and it is 11ft 1" wide main access road from farm to field narrows to 10 ft 10"
The TX67, and 65 I think, were special narrow versions as the linkage from the sides were replaced with electricsthese combines all have the same dimension the only differance is the tyres and rims to alter the width so it most be the rims but i would of though you can swop side to side

Yep,pretty sure they should go on the other way round.these combines all have the same dimension the only differance is the tyres and rims to alter the width so it most be the rims but i would of though you can swop side to side a tx 65 on 800 tyres is 11"2 wide
Thankyou I think this combine has had different wheels on it (deutz-fahr).We've got a TX64 on 650s and I think is under 10 foot 6 I can check in the morning if you want.
Same with white wheeled 68s they were narrowerTX66 with white wheels was narrower than early 66 with Yellow wheels... dishes were altered I think.
