I bought a Finish mower for my 1900 Ford Tractor, 5 years ago. The company, located in Lafayette, GA, was called BTC Equipment Company and is now out of business. I've looked all over the internet and farm equipment companies here in the Dallas area, no one can help me find those two back wheels. The only identification I can find on the mower is that it's an FM-60 S/N 89118. Does anyone know where I can find parts for this finish mower, especially the wheels.

What is the outside diameter of the tire, the outside diameter of the wheel, and the inside diameter of the wheel bearing?

Don't know your mower but many of them are off the shelf parts. Have you just taken the old ones to your dealer, any Ag Parts store such as Tractor Supply or Northern Tool even? ....

I have tried several Tractor stores with no success.They even looked in their catalogs to see if they could order something similar that would fit, again no success. I will go to Northern Supply and try there. Thank you so much, if you have any other ideas please send them. ....

These wheels have the hard rubber non-inflatable tire. I've been to tractor supply places with no luck. Here are the measurements you asked for.
Outside diameter of tire 8"
Outside diameter of wheel 3"
Inside diameter of wheel bearing 1-1/4"
If you have a fax I can fax you a copy of the assembly from the book I have on the mower.
Thank you Bill ....

Try the Surplus Center, they have a website and will send a catalog, or call their 800 number. I've found some hard to locate things from them, always been real helpfull on the phone. I can't put my hands on a catalog right now but I've orderd wheels, casters, and other hard to find things from them.

Is the store just called Surplus Center? Or Surplus Center for Tractors, where are they located, I will try to find them on the Internet, but I will need a little more information to be sure I'm talking to the store you mentioned. Thank you so much, this may be the answer. ....

Hmmm.....wheel and tire diameter aren't all that unusual. But that's one helluva big bearing. You sure it's 1.25" Inside Diameter?

I called the 800 number right away but they were closed, I just missed them, I will call Monday morning for sure. Thank you for your help. I'll keep you posted on the progress of my search. At the recommendation of one of the tractor places I was at, I had the wheels welded, this should hold me for awhile. However, I still need to purchase new ones. Bill ....

I agree with Greg on the diameter of the bearing. Most likely you mean that's the OD of the bearing race or the INSIDE diameter of the wheel hub hole. The through bolt is prolly 9/16, 5/8 or 3/4" if Standard. ....
