Good day everyone; I need to remove the rear wheels so they can be painted, and I am not sure how best support the tractor. In the past I have seen member's tractors simply resting on jack stands. Is this adaquite? Your suggestions are welcome.
Thanks for your time,
Phil

That's all I did. Had it on stands for a couple of weeks while I painted rims and had the tires at the shop getting mounted. No problem.

I have a bunch of 6x6 short timbers, for cribbing. Wedge the front axle, so it doesn't try to tip.

There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.
