Be careful cause that is a good way to break an axle. Something will give when those wheels won't spin.

What in the world are you going to use those for? Hey there Milkman, how goes things? Cool project, I can see you plowing the snow on that long drive of yours.

Interesting, but I'm not sure how much twisting action those 4 bolts are going to hold up to.

But it looks mean!

Awesome, cant wait for a pic of the whole thing when its done!

I would think about selling it in a few years, unless you like repairing hydros /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif I think you will run out of power in the hydro before breaking and axle though /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Do it to the front wheels too and I bet that sucker will float.

For what it's worth, I had a Kubota 185DT with rear duals, and I spun them many times, even with a backhoe on it.

I've been out of comission for a few days so the project is on hold, getting ready for another shoulder surgery next week so more time to think up more stuff to do when the healing is done. I did get a pic of the rear finished and had a chance to drive around a little, does wonders on the mole ridges. I have seen the big JD's with the duals attached this way, with spacers and long bolts for clamps, so I think I'll be ok as long as they are tight, sure does wonders for stability. I have some hillside that I want to get some wood from so hoping it will work good there, and as far as concerns for the hydro holding up, it is designed to hold all 22 horses, no matter how they are fastened to the ground. When I recoup, I will dual up the front and post pics of that, I don't know if there is enough caster to cause a problem when turning, just have to run the outter tires with less air and maybe even go with tubes.
