D.J. I am currently putting a swartz wide front end (steering arms in the back, or under the tractor), that came off of a Super MTA, onto a Super "H". The bracket that bolts to the bolster (4 bolts), fit perfectly. The steering plate holes as Will said, have to be changed. I mig welded all four holes completely shut, buffed the weld off flush with the plate surface, remeasured for the new hole locations, and then drilled the new holes at 4 inches on center in both directions. As for the stay rod bracket that Red Rider mentioned, he's right, it is to wide to bolt up to the "H" frame, but there is plenty of room to drill new holes in the same bracket to be able to bolt it to the frame. Just move the back two holes forward on the bracket until they come in line with the center of the tractor frame. The front two holes will simply move closer together on the bar stock that runs crossways. You will also at this point, most likely have to drill new holes in the tractor frame. Then once you have it bolted on, there will be some excess material sticking out past the frame on either side of the tractor. You can either leave it there, or to make the job look real nice, take a torch or plasma cutter and trim off the excess flush with the tractor frame. Hope this helps, Dewa
