[AJD] Late A Roll-o-matic Hubs vs. Tricycle Hubs

[Kania, John]

All,

Can anybody point me to a website that sells temporary inexpensive
garage/barn kits made from tarp material.  I need a place to keep my 49
BW out of weather and large enough to work in.  Right now it's partially
dismantled and under tarps since Summer of '04. 

I did buy a portable garage for my wife's van from Costco for around
$170 that should last for about 3 years till the tarp starts to break
down from sun. I was thinking of using something like this unless there
is a better idea out there..

I also wonder if there's a cheap site to buy wire for the underground
service to our future barn pad (where the tractor is stored now). I need
to run 240v from a 200 amp service underground about 400 ft through a 1"
conduit.

Thanks for any advice..

When I traded out the tricycle front to a ROM on my '48 B, I tried to
use the existing hubs. They worked, but set the wheels quite a ways
apart, thus making it hard to steer. Got the ROM hubs and put the wheels
closer together and made life a lot easier. The regular hubs will
probably work, it just depends on what you are wanting to do with the
tractor and if the wide set front wheels is something that you can live
with.
