[AT] Allis Chalmers wheel disk

[charlie hill]

Al if it is about 8-10 feet wide it was one designed for a CA Allis. I think
it would be 9 1/2 feet wide.  It is designed to work with the 'traction
booster" system (draft control) on the Allis tractors.   That doesn't mean
it wouldn't work behind your 450.  It probably would.

The 12 foot one in the picture was built for a WD-45 to pull.

If you decide you don't want it let me know I might be interested in it
myself.

Charlie
