[QUOTE="dave_shelby, post: 1850466, member: 22579"] I don't have physical copy of the owners manual but found [URL='https://www.scribd.com/document/559429486/Ford-8240-Operator']this online[/URL] and I can't find any tire combination specs listed in it. It does have the 23.1x34 tire listed but just states for four wheel drive tractors to "always install tires of the same make model and size as those removed". As I mentioned above, the dealer does not know either. The tractor has about 3800 hours, front are about 5-10% and rears are 30%. Manufacturers do NOT match from front-to-rear. Seems excessive to me too. I haven't used 4WD much, as I subscribe to the though that if its wet enough to need 4WD I shouldn't be out there with heavy equipment. One other observation - I left it in 4WD once coming from field to the road, it made a fairly loud whine. [/QUOTE]
