Hello Folks, I have a MF 65 in New Zealand which was probably sold as a special to NZ Railways for yard work. Fitted originally with a front driven hydraulic pump, bucket and probably concrete counterweight at the rear. Still has the front hydraulic pump but now fitted with a front end loader and a 3 point linkage at the rear.

Sold to me as a 65 by a tractor mechanic but oddly enough has 165 sheet metal work. Can't find the machine serial number but engine number is 29E2293 - perhaps UK made? I want to buy some power steering bushes but my pedestal assembly is different to the documentation purchased off the net. No top support bush and a cast in rod mounting.

Photo attached, any ideas as to what the model is thanks very much so I can find the correct parts list. regards,

Your picture makes it hard to see but it doesn't
appear to be like my 65. On mine the smaller control
cylinder connects on the front of the pedestal.
Sorry I don't have a picture. I think you might have
a 165 or a 3165 unless its different on an English
model.
 
By what I can make out from the picture it's either a 165, or a 3165 industrial. Any yellow paint on, or underneath any other colors the tractor may have?
 
Great suggestion Gents! I googled 3165 photos and no doubt some of the original bucket framework remains. The mechanic made a really nice job of repainting in MF red and grey. When I'm back in a while, I'll scratch it away in a couple of spots to look for yellow. In the meantime, for the cost of 897235M1 bushes I'll buy a couple & try to find the UK (or NZ) spec parts list. Thanks!
 

The bushes I found including "genuine", are split dri lube types for around $7-$10 each. Are you referring to a different style of bush perhaps?
