<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto">Thanks for all the feedback. Kept to the back roads except for a few to keep my travel time to something reasonable . Kept cruise at 30 or 35 depending on conditions and traveled late in the evening (just got back). So trip was utterly uneventful and hubs didn’t even get warm (though tires warmed up a bit).<div><br></div><div>I would have taken a picture but it had gotten pretty dark by the time I got home. Tomorrow I’ll have one.</div><div><br></div><div>PS: that 477’s offset is a bit biased to the right compared to the old 467 by a little but I think. I had to really slow down and drop the right tire off the road on the narrowest of roads for oncoming traffic if I wanted my truck off the yellow paint. For some reason it just feels like the 467’s transport hitch point was more centered.</div><div><br></div><div>Spencer</div><div><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Jul 19, 2021, at 5:22 PM, Cecil Bearden <crbearden@copper.net> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">

<p>If the bearings are tapered roller then they are the same as your
wheel bearings on a production car. ( 1970) The tires are
limited to 25 to 30 mph as per the manufacturer. My old friend
who delivered equipment all over the US for Livingston Has told me
that when they get into New Mexico, they have to have regular
tires on the wheels instead of Farm implement tires. Implement
tires are not rated for highway speeds. <br>

Heard of people towing at up to 45 mph. Don’t know how far they
did this. I would say that if you have good tires and make sure
the bearings are fully greased, you should be able to do better
than the 25 mph rating. You may want to try running up and down
your road at increasing speeds, stopping to check if the bearings
start to get too hot.

manual of the 467 I used to own indicated 25 miles an hour
as max speed. This new 477 Haybine I bought I assume would
handle some higher speeds. What do you think the max road
speed for a new Holland 477 might be? 35mph?<br>
<br>
Being able to go 35 miles an hour would cut more off the
trip then just simply the difference in speed. It opens up
a few other roads that are on a more direct route to my
house and would probably save me 20 to 25 minutes. <br>
