39Farmall-M 0 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Looking for a factory ih wide front end for my farmall m. Any help locating one would greatly be appreciated. Wanting one like in the pic below. Link to post Share on other sites
FarmallTom 35 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 A couple of questions: 1. Where are you from? 2. Are you aware that the WFE shown in your picture is not actually period-"correct" for an M? That style was introduced during the production of the Super series. Of course it will fit and, in my opinion, they are nicer to use than the earlier style but if you are shooting for a "correct" wide from for your M... that's not going to be the one. All of that said, I MAY know where you could find one of either style. FT Link to post Share on other sites
R Pope 276 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 The straight M used a front end with the tie rod out front. I have a few of them, one on a parts tractor. Where are you located? Link to post Share on other sites

George 2 37 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 That axle was introduced in 1954 for the Super M-TA and Super H (lighter spindles). It was also used on the Farmall 400, 450, and one with lighter spindles on the 300, and 350. The axle was changed for the 460 and 560 series. Link to post Share on other sites
dale560 1,996 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 We had an early m around that had the cast center tube not steel. It was almost identical to the f20 front. The 400 front like you talk about are spendy. Link to post Share on other sites
