I have a front tire I'd like to mount also. Actually, I'd like to mount it before the tug, so it might not even be an issue. It's a trailer tire and doesn't match the other side, but the one on there now needs to be replaced. There is a gaping hole in it, and this one will have to do until I can afford new tires.

Aftermac, let me do a little looking around the shop. I've been taking off several trailer tires the past few weeks and I might have something to hold you over... :wink:


Thanks, Yogie! Here's some pictures of my situation... the first is a picture of my bad tire with the tube bulging out the side. The spare trailer tire I have is leaning against it. The second picture is my good front tire that is mounted on the opposite side. The two tires I have on there now don't exactly match, but the one obviously needs to be replaced. My other concern is tubes. The tires seem to be holding air now, but I've also put a bit of fix-a-flat in them. :) I hope to be able to get new tires next year, but I don't feel safe driving with the bad tire... wouldn't take much to destroy that tube!

I'm sure I could come up with a couple tubes Aftermac and some good tires... Just bring your rims along and we'll get it fixed up. :wink:

Thanks a lot Yogie! That would be great! :D It will be nice not having to worry about a little stick or rock popping the tube and stranding me. I'll make sure to put the rims on the front of the tractor so I don't forget them! :lol:

Hey Barnyard, Throw my (not wood) camping chair in the trailer would you.
I don't think I can make it until Sat. morning due to work.

Looking forward to it.
Wish I could come down early enough to see some demonstrations and troubleshooting instruction.

Bigdog, if you need anything brought down Saturday morning that didn't get thought of until Friday night just shoot me a PM and I'll bring it along.

Gary Dotson took it home. He said you aren't too far from him.
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

OK Gary's got it, that's cool. Just don't tell my wife that my gift chair is out traveling the Cub circuit.
See ya at the tug.

Things are looking good for Dad and I coming down friday. Dad's truck has only been running on five cylinders since the last time I went up north. Finally got it fixed yesterday one of the coils in the coil pack went bad and I had no spark on #3 cylinder. I was worried I would have to try to mount BigDogs cultivators on top of the Festiva as they sure will not fit inside the car.

Bigdog, you're already aware of my final drive issues, but I thought I would add a post to this thread. It looks like I will need shims on the left side bull gear to resolve the 1/4" of play that wore through the pan. If you could add this to the schedule I would really appreciate it. Yogie suggested fixing it on Friday. I'll be arriving on Thursday afternoon.

I realize I've already made a few requests, so I hope I'm not asking for too much. I intend to work when I get down there too! :) This final drive issue was really unexpected. I intended to spend an hour doing some general maintenance and it turned in to a much bigger project.

You're covered. We can start projects Thursday as well. Assuming there is help (and there should be) and something to do.
