I would highly recommend finding a loader for your tractor. Find one with a hydraulic bucket instead of a trip bucket and you will have a very usefull tool you will wonder how you got along with out! I have a M farmall with a paulson loader and the hydraulic dump material bucket. I added a couple of grab hooks to the bucket to have a easy place to hook chains to and this unit has saved my back countless times. Your Ford should be a nice rig with a loader on it. With most loaders you can take the bucket and lifting arms off with out much trouble and leave the sub frame on the tractor if you want to take some weight off of the tractor when you don't need the loader. On the farm we had a 8N Ford with a superior trip bucket loader. When we needed the tractor for haying and would not need the bucket for a while we had a block and tackle hanging from a beam in the shed and just drove the tractor in, hooked a sling to the main arm and bucket assembly near the pivot pins and pulled the pins that held it to the main frame and hung the arm assembly in place. We pulled the pins in the upper end of the lift cylinders and pivoted them upright and tied them to the sub frame on the tractor. When it was time to use the loader again it took maybe 5 minutes to put it back on.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
