I've got a '63 4000 (4 cylinder, gas) that I'm actually thinking of selling. The reason is that anytime I have to work on the
engine, the loader frame is always in the way. Even if I raise up the bucket and lower it onto something solid (i.e., hay wagon)
in order to make it safe to work on, I still end up bashing my head. I'm really getting sick of this and was wondering what other
models are out there that come equipped with front end loaders - but are configured for easy removal/installation? My loader is
NOT one that would be easily removed. Does Ford make anything with this set-up that is still in this HP range (approx 45 HP)? Or,
are there any other (removable) front end loaders that could be adapted for use on my 4000? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
