So what would happen if PT Folded

[MossRoad]

Then it would not be an authentic PT. This would reduce it's value at the Power Trac shows.

I better go dig the original head lights out of the trash in case I want to show it then....

I made adapters for those wheels I bought. They have been working nicely so far. Used the PT with the swinging minihoe today to chunk some logs for firewood. The studded chains are nice on ice.

And yes, it is my understanding that PT makes their own cylinders. I rebuilt my steering wheel cylinders a couple of years ago. They were letting fluid leak through which was causing my loader to catastrophically drop. This Spring, I will likely rebuild the rest.

I call PT the other day, and talked to Keith in parts, and he said PT makes their own cyl.

BTW, the 5x4.5" bolt pattern is the same as used on Ford and Chrysler cars (not trucks) so that might be an option also.

Most Jeeps are that pattern also which would give you better size options

I have thought of trying some of these automotive wheels but aren't the lug bolt holes a larger diameter?
By the way. You guys failed to talk me out of buying a new tractor. Ordered it yesterday. Terry and Eddy say they've made several upgrades since my old 2003 model.

They use a 1/2" stud, not sure about the hub hole size though -- perhaps not an issue if the PT has a flat hub

Awesome! Take a bunch of pictures before you get it dirty. Will be interesting to compare to your 2003 model.

So what did you buy? Heck, start a new thread while you are at it.
