    Only a 1/4 inch here last night .............. that’s what we call a heavy dew anymore. Even the slopes in the fields have water on them. It’ll be a while till anything can happen out here and that’s us foolishly figuring it stops coming down.

    The fun continues........

      Just to clarify, I was liking your comment that a 1/4 is called a heavy dew in your area.

        Another 3/4 inch around Edmonton Thursday night to even out the 1.25 from Tuesday. Wheat is hanging in, canola a disaster. Glad we don't have peas or barley in.

          Mom was in town today and picked up three of the tires. I definitely think they’ll help out a bunch. Just waiting till Wednesday or so for the rims to show up.



          Looking forward to trying them out .......... whenever that is😉

            Here is hoping that you never need them again. It would be the best investment you ever made if they can accomplish that.

            Edit, same applies to your grain drier. And bale wrapper.
            I was too slow, I asked around to some rig movers, and other off road truckers, but by the time I had some leads, you already found your wheels.

              Impressive, what are those worth anyway? Do you know what total cost with rims will be? I can’t see how they could not help, look great.

                  Finally the rims came in and we mounted one to make sure it fits as planned. May have to cut the fenders slightly on the spreader box to avoid contact but perfect otherwise. That’s an 11x22.5 beside it for comparison. Probably I’ll be running it and kinda looking forward to that. 😎

                  Fun times

                      We switched steer tires with another body job and went from 275’s to 315’s. Tried some 425’s that were laying around but the rim hit on the tie rod end. Should hopefully be ok as it’s a light truck with only an 8.3 Cummins in it. Next week we’ll know for sure.
