Massey Ferguson 35 Loaders

AMERICANA · Apr 15, 2015

Hello guys, Hopefully some of you may share and post pictures of your front end loaders if you will. I have read some reviews about the MF and Davis loaders being to heavy for this tractors but some say they work fine also. I'm barely searching for a decent front end loader which is not that heavy in weight, mostly wanted to know if and what kind of loaders any of you guys have modified for this types of tractors? I can modify just about anything just wanted to see which loaders worked good for you.

If you got a good loader forsale not all rusty i may be interested in it for a decent price ONLY if you can post on Ebay and if your willing to freight that for me to 78538? For this i need to see several pics and need to know your asking price.

Please share pics and inputs they'll surely help.

Thanks Pete

The first pic is of the proper MF model 35 loader as supplied in Britain.....
The second pic is the lightweight Davis loader supplied in USA
Third pic is the Davis industrial loader
Last pic is an American supplied aftermarket loader
Hope this helps?....Sam

My 35 has a loader made by ford an I'm guessing it was for the 8n. It bolts to the 4 bolt holes under the front an also
to back axle.Its a model 98 but if your 35 has no power steering I wouldn't recommend putting it on such a light axle
tractor. Been trying to sell it for 1500 and 4600 with the 35 with ps here in Ga.

Thanks samn40 in all honesty this helps me alot, everything is well posted. I've seen a few like the industrial but am hesitant it may be too heavy even though some say theirs works fine. Just need something to move dirt, not looking for something to with stand a back breakings chores. Now i can take this into account and also been seeing the Ford 8n or 9n as they say fits massey fergusons. Like the 1st and 2nd type 😊 Thanks again Pete

Hello there 2tractors, can you share that model 98 to get an idea what you got please. I have been searching about ford loaders that may fit but am barely trying to understand which ones are the ones that fit. Yet don't have a clue, i'm after a lightweight model which i then can modify myself.

I have a MF 50 bought new with a MF loader by my grandfather. He said it was totally useless. When he picked-up the load, he also picked-up the back of the tractor. He took the loader off the tractor and parked it in a field, never to be used again, so one got killed by it. I still use the tractor almost daily....but no loader.

Might be OK for very light loads, gardening, etc....but not a workhorse.

THAT'S A BIG LOL , i've read a few talking about that.

I'll be doing more like gardening or an easy job

I've got an Allied an ARPS and a Massey trip in the weeds. Let's see if I can
get pics.

I have a mf65 with 5' bucket with pto pump & handles bucket good. Can anyone tell me what bucket i have?

2tractors · Apr 16, 2015

I'll get some pics up today on the hook up points to front and rear of tractor.

samn40 · Apr 16, 2015

We use power link boxes a lot in the UK...They wont load trailers but they do a great job of shifting stuff!......It simply fits on the 3 point and you anly need one remote...It can be transfered from one tractor to another, no traction issues, just a few front weights needed if you lift as much as I do!
LOL

2tractors · Apr 16, 2015

The first pic is where it mounts to back axle and the second is the tractor and fel, also took a pic of front mount but it got lost in space.

Dan S (NY) · Apr 16, 2015

He needed to ballast the back of the tractor to use the loader. Where the tires loaded? You can also attach a weight to the 3 point when using the loader.

Thanks for posting those pics rkh that loader looks nice especially those front cylinders

Looks like it's light way nice one. Can you post a pic of the pto pump to see the setup. Thanks

Thanks samn40, them rocks look like heavy work. The rear shovels around here are smaller and rounded but i believe theres a few other types out there just haven't looked yet. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for posting them pics 2tractors looks nice. It looks like someone modified it but did a fairly good job at modifying it, I think i can re-modify it and make the connections better and make it lighter... Let me see the hydraulic pump setup and the front axle connection at the bottom not that it matters just want to see, Let me know everything that's included on the sale and we see, no bull. Is it working right now? List all minor or major defects if any?

Thanks again

Here's pto pump, if you noticed it has its own reservoir of hydraulic oil from the tubalar lines.

I have a Schwartz 1200 loader (5') attached to my MF135. It runs off the internal pump. It is not very fast, but works well and is fast enough for me. It needed quite a bit of fabrication to
make the loader brackets fit though.

2tractors · Apr 17, 2015

If you look under your 35 where the cradle that holds the front axle is, there are 4 threaded holes in which you would
line up and attach using bolts. The front pump bolts to the front of the loader an with the engine running it drives
the pump via a round slotted shaft called a stinger. Having an fel that uses a front pump is better than one using the
rear pto shaft for several reasons. The most obvious is your pto won't be already obligated with the fel.
As for my 56 to35 the engine runs good, has 40 lbs. oil pressure and good compression on all cylinders.The govenor
doesn't seem to work.The power steering leaves a lot to be desired, it has a leak somewhere under the dash and pukes
fluid ever once in awhile.Although the lift cylinders on the loader have been repacked it will gradually fall back to
Earth with engine off. Pto and 2 stage work fine but like most the 3point won't stay up after you switch off the
tractor.Since you already have a 35 and once you decide on a loader you could find a PS unit off another tractor to
convert yours to ps but salvage yards charge as much as the tractor itself.

I modified the front mount on a M F Industrial loader for my T-O 35 . I changed the control valves and used a PTO pump as all of the old parts were worn out. It may be to big but i have used it for 20 years in construction moving fill dirt around . I did blow out front tires twice during that time . It was very good for moving building materials around and placing roofing materials up on the roof . It has power steering and i don't see how you could use one with out it , unless you are stronger than i am. I have probably been lucky i have not broken the front axle by now.They are a little lighter than the industrial ones are. Here are some pictures with it not cleaned up.

Thanks for sharing, that really helps alot rkh, i think if you don't have much use for the pto is fine, Do you remove pump at times or you just leave it there? Its screwed into place right or no?

Thanks Pete

Looks like a light weight or i may be wrong but i like it. You did do a good job modifying it. Thanks for explaining it being fast or not, me too i'm not looking for something super fast etc. etc. As long as it pleases me i'll be good. I can modify just about anything as well just want to see what you guys have or what you guys have modified, lets see where i land

Thanks for sharing my friend greatly appreciate all you guys sharing.

Let me know whats included on the one your selling?Am i getting pump, Joystick etc. etc.... I can offer you a decent price for it and get it off your hands. I got a tractor and dont need a power steering assembly. I've seen a few on craigslist but i'm still looking not to rush. I also prefer the loader be listed on Ebay to get buyer protection and i need to find someone who can freight it over. Let me know what you can do?

Anybody can private message me I'm Pedro or Pete, reach me at: [email protected]

If i get any loader and needs attention which mostly do this is what i'm doing: i'm a break it down and modify from all mounted areas, remove all un-necessary metal weight and add proper angle supports, make it a bit shorter if needed, add cylinders in the right pressure points, and most likely get my bucket size and modify it to fit.

Thanks Pete

Pto pump is held in place by the holes in the frame of pump have chains to keep from turning. The weight of
pump is a concern-had to replace seal after a couple yrs use, so we put a block of metal under the pump &
shimmed the hitch so it wouldn't move. Not sure if im still going to have seal issues-we just did this. I leave
pump hooked up all the time.

ptfarmer · Apr 18, 2015

This is the front support of my 2135 industrial where the pump mounts.

Only thing is that it uses a non adjustable straight front axle, on the plus side it eliminates the 2 radius rods that the swept back front axle uses. For a FEL you need a minimum 12 gpm pump for it to not be painfully slow. The MF internal pump for the 3 point is only 4 gpm.
