International 3288 Front Assist

I was thinking about converting my 3288 to front assist. I know that IH didn't have this option factory, so I was wondering if it would be possible to find a front assist kit that would fit on reasonably easy. Would something from an older series work, or did they change the frame enough that the front assist couldn't fit on the 3288 without major changes? Thanks.
 
I think IH did have a front wheel drive for the 3288 it shows one in the operators manual. So there should be some around ,i dont know how much work it would take to make the change.
 
Front wheel assist was a option on that tractor. I don't know how many 30 series came out with FWA. I have never seen the 30 series with one on it around here. You might search the net ,salvage yards and see what you find. I don't know if one off a 66 or 88 series tractor will fit the 30 series. If a salvage yard has one off a 66 or 86 series, they might be able to tell you if they will bolt up under the front. I think, not 100%, the transmissions on the 30's are still the same as the 66-86's. I know one place that might have one off a 86 series and he will know for sure or might tell you where you might find one. Smiths in Mayfield KY. 270-247-2219 . Ask for Steve
