Wide Front For A Mid 40's H Farmall

Used Schwartz are easy to find and cheaper to buy, and they are built stronger. I put Schwartz heavy duty wide front on my H, plan on having a loader for it someday.

I've seen several original IH wide fronts for sale, ranging from $250 for a poor one, all the way up to $900 for a perfect one with good paint, wheels, and tires.

If you really want original, I might be able to get one from an M (if it is still there) for about $600, would trade for narrow front and $500. Good luck!

People have been telling me that the M and H front ends don't interchange...

Do they?

Thanks,

Allan

The differences: the plate that sets the old style tie rod in front of axle front end back further is wider on the M - you will need the H plate to set it back (if you want it set back). And the steering arm has the holes spaced wider on M thru 450 vs the H thru 350 - I slotted the holes with a torch to make the 450 arm fit my H.
