Hey All,
recently got a 3 row basket weeder that is 5' wide so looking to extend the cub wheels some - wondering with the wheels all the way out do i run the risk of bending axles or what not - i am growing in some rocky soil ,,,
i have a 140 also so i am lookin to set them at same widths - tryin to figure out what size bed i should use
thank you

Re: wheel width
Axles shouldn't bend. Theres a bearing, an inch or so, behind the hub, so it's well supported.

Re: wheel width
As Ed says, axles, tires and rims won't bend.
What you need to do is figure out the row spacing you want. Then set the tractor tires and implements to that spacing.
