    You nicely covered questions I'm considering regarding what size to get when I'm ready. I found this video looking for examples of large spacer installs on compacts (I'm sub-compact). Taking the time to take that picture with one side installed and one not, from straight on, was appreciated. Not too many folks going this large so thanks for sharing.

      The Rk 55 & TYM equivalent Realy ""cheeped out " on this bigger model tractor. The Massey-Ferguson ( same size) came with off-setable rims ( 6 different configuations) all this and more for 1500.°°$. I think they do this because the transmission-axle can handle it. Just NEVER see a factory "option" for the RK-TYM system---bet they don't recommend it, Because it will probably Snap the Axels off eventually.

    Great video as always! I was thinking this would be a good size for down in KY in the country. Up in OH in town, I think narrow is better...
    Why did you choose Aluminum over steel?
    I like the idea of spreading the weight over a further width on the my trailer. hmmm

    • @TryNewThings
      @TryNewThings  2 года назад +3

      Honestly, biggest reason was they said turn around on aluminum was quicker… that backfired on me didn’t it? Well now that they have an RK25 under their belt I would assume no issues for anyone going forward.

    How does Rural King feel about adding spacers? Some manufacturers are okay, some it will void the warranty. Thanks for the good I fo.

    Did you measure the total width before and after? Websites never seem to share how wide a tractor is.....

    • @TryNewThings
      @TryNewThings  2 года назад +2

      I can go back to my very first RK25 video and pull out the original width, and when I'm out there tomorrow I can get the width with the spacers. I'll go back and put that info into the description. Good suggestion WW. Thanks as always!

    • @PeaceIntheValley
      @PeaceIntheValley 2 года назад +2

      I think my RK25 is about 61-62" wide at the rear wheels. The inside of the bucket is 58.75". I would guess the new width with these bora spacers would be 67" wide.

  • @richardsplker303

    The first thing I notice is would this modification make it a little easier to remove and reattach the backhoe?

    • @TryNewThings

      It certainly would make it easier to get in and install/remove the pins that lock the two frames together.

      Additionally I want to add my RK25 came with a 12 inch hoe bucket I dug an electric line from both directions driving over the open ditch to complete the dig having the rear tires wider for this would have helped as the weight of the tractor caused a little cave in

    Do they recommend checking the bolts that attach the extender to the wheel hubs.

    • @TryNewThings
      @TryNewThings  2 года назад

      AH, thanks for the question. They do not make any such recommendations, but as with all bolted connections on the tractor I would recommend checking them periodically. Now that is a challenge (or at least a bit of a chore) as you have to remove the wheel to check the bolts where the spacers attach to the tractor.

  • @RealJeep
    @RealJeep Год назад +1

    I'm wondering what kind of stress those spacers put on the rear wheel bearings. The further out you go the more stress those bearings get. That and you obviously don't have your tires ballasted. Mine weigh over 400 pounds each.

    • @TryNewThings
      @TryNewThings  Год назад +1

      I Do have rim guard in the back tires. And your concerns around stresses are why I didn’t go too wide with the spacers. So far so good though. Time will tell I suppose.

    • @fshalor738
      @fshalor738 4 месяца назад

      I'd say 2" would be fine, 3.5" or more feels too much.
      Rim construction, whether they are weighted or not, and intended use case matters a bit.
      As I'll be doing mostly sloped work, running light, and in backhoe mode most of the time, 1.5" or 2" will be going on my T224. getting to the right spot is key.
