Time to think creatively

Thanks for that info Tony, I hadn't considered the offset.

re the wheel-nuts, the M151 does not use tapered (conical) wheel-nuts like just about every other normal vehicle in existence, but rather flat faced nuts. But the threads will be correct for the cone type nuts. Then again, you are just putting wheels on to move it short distances. It's not like you are going to try and do something crazy like a-framing it home.

If, when the time comes, you were to repack the wheel-bearings, and remove the 4 axle prop shafts, (and install 4 good and proper tires and rims) you could theoretical pull it home with a towbar and a set of lights, but that is out here on the prairies. Between the QPP and the OPP, I am not so sure they would agree. Much easier to just use a trailer.
