KB: Those Farmall front ends will actually bolt up and work on a 656 Utility. It will sit a bit high on front, but that can be overcome by larger rear tires.

Getting back to mounting a 966 front end on a 656, it was done by IH dealer and stabilizer cross member had to be modified. They replumbed the hydrostatic steering to the 966 remote steering cylinder. This happened as a result of a new 966 buyer wanting 4x4. The 656 front end was installed on a Farmall 300 using 300 center casting and stabilizer cross member. The guy with the 300 had both center control arms, and said it was a choice of turning short with strong arms, or steering like a stock 300.
