I’ve had two Schwartz wide front ends on my M. It has live hydraulics, 12 volt start, 15.5-38 tires on 14” rims, Behlen power steering and a DuAll 325 loader on her. I used to work it almost every day when I still farmed, now it just does odds and ends around the yard. The front end I currently have is a heavy duty one with 6-bolt hubs that I have 8X16” rims on with 236-16” load range E used pickup on. I can’t think of a drawback to it.

I have never had a genuine IH wide front, so can’t give any info on it, but did have hubs that took the original M front rims that clamped on like the rear wheels. I hated that one as the rims would work loose, turn on the hubs and sheer off the valve stems. Welding blocks that fit the notch in the hub eliminated the valve stem problem, but the rims still worked loose. I like the 6-bolt hub a lot better.
