Stretched Wagon Axle Reduces Compaction
![]() |
Harold Walters and Kenton Woster, of New Providence, replaced the 6 by 8-in., 120-in. long axle with a 144-in. long trussed frame that spans four 36-in. rows. They beefed up the new axle with 1 by 4 in. strap iron and added a stub drawbar. Walters says the wide-track rig straddles 4 ridge-tilled or flat-planted rows. By running both combine and grain cart wheels in the same rows they reduce overall compaction.
