I have a Schwartz WF on my 560 that was sold to me as an IH (it had IH casting #'s on the hubs). I found out (later) that an identifying clue is the Swchartz link is splined to the top of the spindle shaft whereas the IH is keyed. Additionally, after I had to buy a new spindle last month, I founf out my particular WF is designed for an IH 460. It bolts up the same and uses many of the same parts, but the spindles and spindle shafts are larger on the WF designed for a 560. I've been told I shouldn't have much problem here unless I intend to move heavy loads (i.e. big round bales) with a front end loader. If I remember correctly, I paid $400 for the unit w/o wheels and tires, used, from an implement dealer (who consequently is no longer in business, hence I can't go back on him now that I find out the mfg of the unit was misrepresented). I may have been taken, maybe not, but I share this with you, because forewarned is forearmed. Gadget
