I can't say for sure, but it looks very similar to a MF 102 loader. It's a beast. Runs off a front mounted PTO pump.

Thanks i picked it up for $1,000 i thought it might be a 100 model it was a barn find the guy i bought it from told me it will fit on a 135 or 202

I had a 202 and this photo of yours shows a loader assembly that sure looks like the genuine item. All I can tell you was the loader assembly was heavy and powerful. The tractor was a real workhorse for a gasser in its' day.

I agree. Looks very much like the 102 loader on my MF204.

That's the same as my loader, although the controls on mine are on the left side. I believe it is a 102 and Shaeff is correct - it does run off a front pump, and IS a beast. :thumbsup: It's incredibly strong, has two pairs of double-acting cylinders and a mounting frame that reaches right to the rear axle. I hope you got the pump and drive with it, also mine has a huge filter in a casing on the left side. You will need, among other bits, a crankshaft front pulley that the pump drive-shaft can be bolted to.

You will be amazed what it will lift. Mine is on a MF40 industrial, which has 7.50-16 front wheels/tyres and a one-piece square front axle - much stronger for weight-carrying than the agri-spec 3-piece adjustable version such as what is on my '68 MF135. You may have the later version square front axle, but be aware of the weight-carrying capacity of smaller tyres; and DON'T turn them inside out!

I have normal Dextron ATF auto-trans oil in mine ... I was surprised to find that's one of the oils approved for it! :laughing:

Since you've been savvy enough to buy it, can you post a few more pics? Thanks.

Will this loader fit an MF20 Industrial?

 

[wfreebie]

Just curious. Did you buy this in Missouri?

Will this loader fit the MF20 Industrial?

An MF20 is an industrial 135 so should fit or fairly easy to adapt. It might have even come off an MF20. It's off an industrial tractor. All the tractors in that size range are very similar. 202, 2135, 20, 135, etc.

That's correct. In fact, look at the pic in this link with the loader attached ... looks very similar.

Just asking, what makes these masseys "industrial" . One for sale around me. I think they want 3000 Canadian for it. I think its early 60s or earlier then that. MF30.

I reckon they were beefed-up with the relevant framing for loaders and back-hoes, and generally more heavily built anyway. as such were intended for earth-moving, military or civil works applications. Whereas the alternative model line-up were "Agricultural" and a bit lighter, but with the facility to add weight if needed. These were also much more readily available with such equipment as PTO and 3PL. They may also be equipped with a smaller and lighter-framed loader, probably with hay forks etc.

 

[VroomVroom]

Yeah, they look beefy. Fellow would be better off with the industrial version for logging with a tractor. I looked at one picture, it seemed like the rear end was much heavier in appearance. The loaders on those look really strong too.

 

[PatrickS2222]

I see a great example of that here with my 135 & MF40 parked side-by-side. They both have basically the same 3cyl Perkins diesel, same gearboxes too. But the '40 has a rear axle similar to a 65 or 165-188 ag tractor - much heavier, a bit wider, has two pairs of mounts for backhoe/loader frame, and with final drive reduction boxes and inboard multi-disc brakes. Front axle is also stronger box-type with power steering, and all wheels and tyres are larger. I'll try to take a pic, but it's difficult to show the difference.
