I seem to remember that a WF front axle(axle, spindles & wheels) will fit on a NF. Is this correct?
The reason that I ask is that the great running 127 that I have in the For Sale section isn't selling. And I need a hydro WF to mount my Haban sickle bar to. Since the Haban hangs from the front axle, I thought maybe I'd switch axles & use it for the sickle bar. Does this sound rational?
I'm still hoping to sell this 127 & pick up a 109, but I want to keep my options open.
I'm planning to be at AW's next Saturday morning, with the 127 & some other goodies. I hope to see a few familiar faces & meet the Mayor! *everyone hide the charcoal lighter fluid*

Re: WF front axle on a NF?
It will go right in. The only thing you may have a problem with is the length of the drag link. It may have to be lengthened or shortened.
I even put a cyclops axle in a NF for my loader.

Re: WF front axle on a NF?
Daryl, Have you tried installing the Haban the way it is? Why do you think you need to change the front axle?

Tim, I haven't tried fitting the Sickle-Mow to the NF front axle. But If I keep this tractor, I want to fix the loose steering. And this is the best way that I know how! Plus I already have a set of wheels....
I thought they looked pretty close to the same.....
Thanks to everyone for the input!!
