Ford 2000
Hello I have been in the market for a Ford Loader to mount on my 68' 2000. I found one but not sure if it will fit. The model number on the tag says I9-97 and the serial number is 7355 I think it might be a 703 or 720 Loader. The tractor this is mounted on is a 50"s ford 861 power master, I believe. The question I have is, will this mount on my 2000??

a dearborn 19-97 is an industrial loader with da lift cyls.. a 105 model was available with sa cyls... it was designed to fit the naa and 6XX/8XX tractors.. kits were available for 8n, ferguson 20/30/35 and oliver 55. IE.. this loader was out BEFORE the 65+ models came out.

will it fit a 65+? with a torch and welder.. I'd guess yes. not with the brackets it's using for a 00 though....

a 730 loader is what would fit your 65+ 3 cyl.

Thanks for the quick response sound guy!

Is dearborn made by ford? Here is a picture of the tag and a couple other photos. I took some rough measurements and everything seems close but it's hard to tell without having the loader right there.

Is a 730 the only Loader that will fit my 2000? They are hard to come by and pricey when you do find them. Also it seem a little heavy for the tractor.

the 730 is a specific model made for the 3 cyl.. it's not too heavy for it.

there are MANY laoders that will fit the small 3 cyl fords..

Like a wise man once said "With a torch and a welder..Yes". 730 would be nice but they don't give them away. I ended up finding a loader that was custom mounted on a 3000, bought it and slapped her on my 2000....works great, but I don't have a clue what it is.
