I went to re-torque the wheel bolts on my 2210 this weekend, and was having trouble with one of the fronts. After removing the tire/wheel altogether, I couldn’t get the bolts to line-up to re-install. Upon further investigation, and a cardboard template, I discovered that the bolt-holes were not punched in the center of the wheel. The center pilot hole was, but the bolt hole circle was shifted about a 1/4". This put such a side load on the bolts that I’m surprised that it ever went together at the factory. I called the dealer, and have a new wheel on order, should have it Wednesday. Anybody else ever encounter anything like this?

Defective rim replaced under warranty. Dealer was great. I'm up and running again. ....

I believe I saw your post about this on the "other" tractor board but I refuse to participate there any longer. Glad and welcome to see you here! Even more so that you got your problem worked out to your satisfaction with the dealer. That was kind of a an odd ball problem with the wheel. Must have been manufactured on Friday the 13th or something like that. ;-) ....

Thanks, for the welcome. And, actually I've not participated in “the other board”. Though it would be interesting if someone else, over there, had come across the same problem. This “board” has been so helpful (and entertaining), that I haven’t even had inkling to look elsewhere :) ....
