M six bolt hubs and bearing caps

Dick Binfield · Mar 11, 2010

I recently purchased some 6 bolt hubs from Walts tractor.com. for my M wide front. I think I can use the bearing caps from the cast hubs presently on the wide front end. I got a part number from an IH parts manual for gaskets that supposedly fit the M bearing caps and the 6 bolts and purchased them from the IH dealer here in central Nebr. They are not even close to the correct size-- too large. I thought the 6 bolt hubs were advertised as the same size as the cast trike hubs. Ideas comments?

I doubt if they are supposed to be the same. IH did not make 6 bolt hubs for the M. You apparantly have an aftermarket axle, or one off a later IH model, which fits the M.

Dick Try gaskets from a 560. They were much bigger than earlier ones. Bernie Steffen
