Sears SS/16

I figured I'd make my first post on here about my Suburban.

I have a 1974 Sears SS/16 Twin. It has a 16hp Onan BF MS engine. For the upcoming 4h Pull in a little less than 2 weeks, I will be running a set of Sears cast iron wheel weights on the outsides of the rims, and a set of IH Cub Cadet cast iron wheel weights on the insides of the rims. I have a 46" dozer blade mounted on the front with a minimum of 40 pounds on it. I can add more as necessary. I plan to drill out my front rims and put front wheel weights on as well. I am running stock 23x9.5-12 Sears turf tires.

heres a picture:

Sweet, almost got a SS wanted it badly. Nice!

good luck at the pull have you tested her out pulling anything yet to see if you can tweek any flaws before you go into the pull

90% of science is trial and error.

what kinda rules you got? I can tell you how to make that thing a good puller!!! i pulled one of them for awhile, and then i graduated to my cubs, and let my buddy run my SS16...I got some pics somewhere of my buddy running it....

how long are the bolts that your using to hold the wheels and weights on?

what size are the wheel wheights that you are useing

I do believe that thems the stock 25ish or their 35ish id have to weigh my sears weights again.....Anyways their the stock cast iron wheel weights for a sears.....around 25 or 35 pounds, and they take a 1/2in bolt how ever long to set them on your wheels...I like all thread and then cut to length!

should be a stout tractor....be sure to get someone to take some pics of you pulling !

the sears wheel weights are 33 pounds, and the cub cadet ones are 26 pounds.. no rules for mods, but since we pull dead weight, i think im fine

theres no rules for mods are there classes for tractors?

why are you running in the mod class? their has to be rules, otherwise you cant keep all the tractors "competetive"......Also you honestly dont have the setup to run with anything thats truely moded.....

are there engine size rules

like engine mod restrictions
