8 pointsHi All, just thought I would introduce my Gutbrod 1032. i have restored it completely then modified it to suit my purposes. I move my 22ft caravan with it. It looks a bit odd but dose the job. I was having trouble at low revs having to slip the clutch so I fitted a 16hp honda copy engine. It has hydraulic rear linkage, 55amp alternator and I have just managed to fit Barford Atom 15 wheel weights . giving me 32kg each side plus water balasted rear wheels. It will now plough solid clay without having to use diff lock. I hope this dosn,t offend the purests with all the mods but it dose the jobs i require of it Just need a Rotovator now !

Going with the electric clutch rather than the manual clutch on this D-160 for the rear PTO and will put the manual clutch with the double pulley on the other D that will run a mower if I get another rear PTO. -

A small break in and amongst other jobs meant I finished off the pipe work. It's all neatly routed behind the fender and through the hood stand. Tank is now under the seat, but I forgot to take a picture. -

Ransomes Turf Trac /Steiner

Can you water ballast the rear wheels? Sorry, missed the earlier suggestion re water. -
1 pointThey do bulge a tad. As you might, or might not know there are two D series rim sizes, 12" and 15", I have both, but it is almost impossible to find an AG tire in 15 inch. There are two choices 6.7-15 inch wide (which is actually a implement or pedestrian tractor tire), which would also bulge on a 7 inch wide 15" Wheel Horse rim, REALLY look stupid, The next 15 inch tire available is the 30x12-15 Carlisle Tru Powers which wont fit, because the tires would be too tall. The 30" tires I have are on the wide 10" rims and because of the wide rim they only measure 29" tall, the wide rim pulls them down, just like a pinching in on narrower rim would push them up. If I had opted for the 30x12-15 Tru-Powers on the 7-15 wheel Horse rims it would have pushed them up over 31", wouldn't fit. I really had no choice unless I wanted to lift the rear fenders and have it jacked up in back like a Serbian Yugo. I could have kept the same size all around, but the tires on most GTs were designed for mowing, wide/short tires all the way around, I wanted these tractors to have some ground clearance. To give you a good example of what I mean, other than setting to plow next to George and his Gutbrod look at the last picture in my post of my other D-160 with the the 27x9-15 Maxxis Ceros tires, they measure out at almost 28" tall because they are 9 inch wide tires on a stock wheel horse 7 inch wide rims that pushed the tire upward almost an inch. Now glance at the middle of the tractor to the angle adjustment on the snow plow, see how low it is to the ground even with 27x9-15 rears and 4-10 fronts, it is 1-1/2" inches closer to the ground with stock tires. Interco offers a 27x7.5-12 and -14 tire just like this one, but I would have to find a 6 hole narrower rim. Can you start to see my dilemma?
