Mud Scraper For Tractor Duals

Mud scraper for tractor duals TRACTORS Miscellaneous 10-1-8 North Dakota farmer Harvey Bloomquist, of Drayton, built this low-cost scraper to keep his tractor duals from "mudding up". "I got the idea from mud scrapers used on dual-tired trucks," says Bloomquist. The main horizontal frame is a 2 by 4-in. piece of steel tubing about 10-ft. long. To this, he mounted brackets for attaching it to the tractor's quick coupler. The 2-ft.long mud scraper bars extend between the tires and are also made of 2 by 4-in. steel tubing. They're bolted to the long main frame so they can freely pivot horizontally between the tires. Bloomquist estimates the cost to build the scraper to be right at $100.
