I bought a 63 ford 4000 two years ago and am
finally getting around to fixing leaks. It
came with a front end loader that I thought
the id tag on the bucket said was an 877 but
I haven't been able to cross reference that
number to any similar pictures on the net.
The two bucket curl cylinders need
repacking. The loader is different in that
the cylinders are mounted by the front of
the cylinder down by the bucket. The mount
pivots and the back of the cylinder tilts up
and down as the bucket curls. All the ford
fel pictures I see have the back of the
cylinders fixed to a mount and the front end
floats free. The cylinders are only about 18
inches long. Anybody have any idea what type
of loader this might be so I can order new
seals for the cylinders? I have pictures
but don't know how to post them.
