There is a picture of a Farmall BN rollover posted by a Richard in the Stuck and Troubled section. He wrote "Another photo of the BN that rolled while I was mowing. Watch out for those narrow tractors and tricycle front ends!!" In the picture marked "Rollover Farmall B", you can see that the left axle casting from the B or BN had been removed and the drawbar was replaced with parts from an A. You can see that the motor is almost aligned with the front and rear tires. It appears the rear tires are set in tight, and there is no wheel weights. To blame that accident on the tractor is just silly. The person who put this together ought to consider his contribution to the gene pool and not reproduce. Ok, maybe that's a little strong, but come on. That is one of the dumbest things I have seen. A BN or B with a regular axle casting is as stable as an A. To have made this modification was just asking for trouble. Just had to get that off my chest. Take Care Steve
