Mahindra 1640 rear rim mess

[A70Farmer]

About two weeks ago while bush hogging my West pasture, the left rear wheel bolts decided leave the chat. Don’t want to discuss why

Anyway - the 19.5 x 12.25 rim bolt holes were destroyed. Mahindra is way, way behind with parts. Anyone know of any other manufacturer or aftermarket rim that’ll work? This is my first foray into tractor rims.

Good luck with that and next time, check your lug nuts for tightness and torque them properly as they usually start making a creaking noise prior to exiting stage left...

Yes - I’m ashamed. I did a full torque check 53 hours prior. I should have rechecked. It never made a noise or shuddered.

What is your bolt pattern?
You can get rim reinforcement rings to weld in and repair them.

Well that right there is interesting! I’ll have to measure the pattern.

Make a new flange and weld it in. Easy fix
