moogie Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 If i were to make a Massey Ferguson 595 4X4 what would be the best and easiest front axle to use? The Fiat DT 880 front wheels are about the correct size, would this axle work? I would like the steering to still work than to be fixed. Thanks, Noel.

moogie Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 How about an MF240 from a UH 135 skid 'Moogie Woogie Bugal Boy from Company B' (only Pops is old enough to remember that song.. sorry to anyone under the age of 85) Martin Reeve made me an MF230 once like that.... it is suuuuuuuperb in the extreme.. I'll get some pictures up tonight for inspiration if you like ? Would love to see it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogie Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 i have a feeling the pin hole on the fiats slightly different? might be deeper or shorter so the wheels either wont fit, or are slack, hence why the deutz ones uses as paul also mentioned, i have a fiat one and a mf chassis i nthe shed so can try for you before you pull anything apart if needed Hi Sean, did you get a chance to have a look over the weekend? Thanks, Noel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 yes mate, sorry i forgot to post back, the fiat axel does fit but the hole the chassis pin goes through is slightly to deep, so the steering does not work right, way to tight, best option would be the deutz one, i know i used that in the past as a young lad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
moogie
If i were to make a Massey Ferguson 595 4X4 what would be the best and easiest front axle to use?
The Fiat DT 880 front wheels are about the correct size, would this axle work? I would like the steering to still work than to be fixed.
Thanks, Noel.
