[AJD] front wheels

Wed Apr 5 21:43:34 PDT 2006

Mitch,
Might you mean JD1274R rims and not JD1275R?  The JD1274R are a heavy duty 
version of the JD1268R used on the A, and both the 74 and 68 are reversible. 
G/GM from (5-12)/41 thru 20277 used the JD1261R non reversible wheels, and 
these were followed by the reversible JD1272R wheels/hubs for a short time 
before 1948 - GM20582 has these rims.  They were replaced by the JD1274R 
reversible wheels, used from about 20278 to end of G production.  I guess 
the JD1275R would be a heavy duty version of the JD1261R wheels.  Out of 
curiosity, which parts book lists the JD1275R wheel for the G?

JD1290R wheels didn't come into use until the late '50's - on the 20 series 
as I recall, and never came on a G.

Regards,
Duane

Duane,
In reading your post to Tommy Wilson about the proper rims he needs, I 
started to think about the front rims for my GM.  Now this GM is a little 
strange in that it is a 1946 and has been equipped with a lot of the later G 
parts such as a water pump and Roll-A-Matic front end.  The rims that came 
on it are definitely dished the wrong way and a side comment by a 
knowledgeable friend said that they are A rims.  The parts book calls for 
the JD1275R rims by the serial number, but with the Roll-A-Matic, should I 
be going after the JD1290R rims?  Surprisingly, I have found a set of the 
JD1275R rims.
