40's saved my sister's jeep, mostly. Old man had a medical issue and swerved into her lane at 45mph. Rear tire went up over the fender when she tried to avoid him. Wheel, control arms and axle need to replaced. Could have been much worse.

Looking for some general info please on axle track and inside to inside measurements of tractor wheel spacings.

Can anyone help me with an approximate size range for tractor axle width. I need an old 4x4 60hp tractor to earth up plants for a nursery I'm planning, we've been offered some land but I need to make a quick calculation on plant density to see if it is big enough.

I know I'm asking a 'how long is a piece of string question' but any information is useful at this point. Google only seems to want to talk about new tractors or classics.

How are car wheels, hubs, axles and everything else attached to each other?

My current understanding is the tire is attached to the wheel, the wheel is attached to the hub and the hub is attached to the axle.

I feel like I'm missing something but I don't know what.

To give context into why I'm asking, I'm attempting to design an independent motor vehicle. I'm trying to see where to put the gear that will drive the axle that will then obviously make the vehicle move.

Edit: Hey all, wanted to say thank you for all the awesome information that was shared. There was a lot of good information that I'm beginning to wrap my head around. On a related note, I now see that a car is not the proper design inspiration for this part of the project! Again, thank you all for the information.
