Either a nut on the axle or with a C clip against the outside hub of the wheel.
A car wheel is attached to an axle. If the car is RWD, the rear wheel axle will be connected to the engine and the front wheels not be. In a 4WD or FWD car the front axle, with a ball joint to allow steering, will also be connected to the engine via a torque tube and a geared differential.
Only the front or rear wheels drive the vehicle and not both.
Depends on the car. Part of the frame, or the assembly line tractor points (On unibody cars, usually marked by two notches a few inches apart. Should be one at the front and rear between the wheels on the body seam weld.) are a good place to start.
If wheels aren't balanced they'll vibrate when they're rotating at speed. This can be unpleasant and can even increase wear on tires and suspension.
A four wheel car can drive on two wheels. There are 1/4 mile drag cars that can do the 1/4 mile on just the two rear wheels. There are stunt car drivers that can drive a car on just the drivers side or passenger side wheels.
For stability and traction
A "mechanical front wheel drive" tractor has front-wheel-assist which means that not only the rear drive wheels pull the tractor ahead, but the front wheels also pull the tractor.
It is more difficult to steer with big tires, they are smaller so they are managable, also the weight on a tractor and traction is needed in the rear
yes, you might need to get a new rear wheel deck adjusting system. make sure it's for large rear wheels
when the wheels are larger the tractor appears to be going down hill making the load easier to pull. Much better for traction especially in mud and soft soil.
Right side of engine on rear
When you turn the front wheels, they skid sideways as they turn. The skidding wears rubber off the tire.
As the tractor pulls plows or other things the weight gets pulled back onto the rear wheels, to carry that weight and not sink into the ground they need to be large.
its to do with gearing think about having small wheels on the back they.d never push the big wheels
Large wheels on the rear of a push mower is nothing but marketing gimmicks... infact most of the time it's worse because the rear wheels end up breaking. It's perfectly fine if your lawn if flat and you don't plan on turning but if you do or mow on any hills the side load normally wears out the wheels faster in the rear. It's nothing more than a gimmick. And makes it harder to mow the lawn especially if you have things you need to go under such as deck steps..etc.
The rear wheels need to be in the air, or the drive shaft removed.
No, you can adjust them properly on the right side just before the rear diff lock pedal.
