You could narrow up the front by using a B series axle or drop and narrow it with a 200 series axle or a RJ one

Going to make a tube steel axle. Today was just a look and see.

Shopping for some 3.50 x 8 tri-ribs and steel wheels for the front. Any good deals out there?

I ended up trading this horse off. I now have  a box of parts that will be a c-120. I am reviving this thread. Or I can start new. Anyway I have the trans apart for inspection. I am going to either seal and fill the diff with grease or rearrange the pinions to create a locked diff. Opinions? We are allowed to move the engine forward but I don't want to mess up the belt angle and use of a stock belt. Any ideas? Will post pics soon.

I know some do lock the rears. I've never seen it to be worth a doing. We run lighter oil in the rears (ATF) to save hp for the track.  Why make the rear use more up just to move the tractor ?

Going to run ATF. Thinking if packing the ring gear with grease for a limited slip diff.

I wouldn't put grease anywhere in the rear. Having a correctly weighted puller  will do way more for you

What's with the grease???  Very bad idea...you may end up blocking the oil getting to the outer axle bearings, and it is not really needed.  I think you would do more harm then good.  :eusa-think:
