FOUR WHEEL DRIVE (FWD) FRONT AXLE TRACK SPACING
FOUR WHEEL DRIVE TRACK
ADJUSTMENT
Four wheel drive (FWD) tractors have fixed axle
assemblies. However, the track width is adjustable to
eight different settings by changing the wheel rim
relative to the center disc, the rim and/or disc relative
to the axle hub or by interchanging both front wheels.
Figure 170 shows the track spacings available by
changing the wheel rim and disc positions relative to
the hub.
Each drawing represents either a left-hand wheel
viewed from the rear or a right-hand wheel viewed
from the front.
IMPORTANT: When the track adjustment is
changed, the steering stops must be adjusted to
maintain turning diameter and to provide clearance
between the tractor and the tires and, when installed,
fenders.
