    bx1800 bent frame?

    hello again: I did measure to the top of the rims as suggested. I believe the issues is in the QC of the tire manufacturer. I believe the tires are different outside diameter. I dropped the "problem" (right side) tire to 15lbs. I then leveled the tractor by lowering the pressure in the left...
