Wow that Ford 8770 looks a brut wish someone would do a convo of that and you're also tempting me into buying a one of them britains case combines as it looks so good up close!
Thats intreresting sean, I've taken the mf 5455 front loader version apart and assumed it would be the same design on the claas. But know looking closer at willjcb's pic the bracketry is different to the mf but may only need some new holes drilled in the mf's bonnet.Because I was thinking about doing a conversion on a mf and using the claas loader as the donor and then it would be like the agritechnica limeted edtion.
I did the same with a mf 5455,undo the two screws undrneath the tractor which seperates the chassis from the bonnet and rear arches. Remove front axle which justs lifts out. Remove cab. Up inside the bonnet section you will find one small screw that holds the bonnet on to the body of the tractor undo this and the bonnet will become free. Now you can either cut the two rivot type pins with a dremel or junior hacksaw and then slide the 2 cut pins out and the loader will become free.
Problem now is that you will have 4 holes in the bonnet of your tractor. You may want to get another replacement bonnet of the ordinary 697 version from someone on the forum.
Now rescrew bonnet back on and put cab on and also put front and rear linkages and wheels back in place and scew back together. Hope thats helped you Willjcb.

one blooke down in my road in bexhill is a miserable git doesnt like anyone on his land even if you stay on the foootpaths,threatented to shoot a womens dog. anyway not sure what there doing, keep going with the good pics mate
whilst out mowing the front lawn on the ride on mower i saw the local contractor come past with his ford 7*40 powerstar and rear disc mower, looked like a kuhn but couldnt tell as i couldnt see a lot through the trees
britains should release a double cab pick up as the last 4x4 they released was the 90 pick up with ifor canopy and that must be nearly a year a go surely they could easily do a 110,a ranger or a mazda as all of these marques are part of ford.
but wont be much chance of this as they havent even brought out a new shape freelander yet.
Sorry complaint over!
