Hey gang....got the engine right....brought the tractor home from the farm yesterday and she ran great. This M is a tricycle front end...and I guess from what the guys are telling me...the front wheels are set wide? I guess I'm supposed too swap sides too bring them in narrow. Anyway, I also had one tire low on air and no air tank with us....so down the road we came on a 30 minute ride too my house. Once I hit the blacktop.....the shimmy's started. Pretty bad too.....I almost went back too the farm but I slowed a bit and they werent soo bad.....got it home! Now then......I guess I'm going too be addressing this issue next.....so what do I do first? Is there any kind of tricks too help save some dollars and get rid of the shimmies? Someone mentioned turning a sector gear over????.....I'm new too these M's and its a learn by doing thing. I'm thinking too start with narrowing the tires, getting proper air pressure, checking all the steering linkage, and then on too the sector gear?
Thanks for any help here in getting me going in the right direction.
