Reminds me of when my Dad would put the one row beet digger on the Super M every Fall. The Right Rear rim and tire would come off useing a block and tackle hooked to the roof of the shed. Lean it against the wall and then take the wheel off the axle and flip it so the dish was out useing the block and tackle again, then put the rim and tire back on so the tread was right. Left wheel was set at 33 inches from center and right wheel at 55 inches from center (I think my math is right, beets were 22 inch rows). Had to have the long axles to do this. Every now and then one would break from the weight of the beet digger hanging on one side, also hard on that axle bearing. Then he would set the wide front axle ahead so the digger would clear. One day to set the wheels and the next day to put the digger on. Dig 30 or so acres and go set all back like it was to do field work. Brian
