Friend of mine purchased a 1970 Ford 3000 tractor ....
We tore it down and put a new clutch in it ..
Tractor runs like a top ...
It came with a superior front bucket which has obviously been over over loaded as the front end was chanted back ....
We have the majority of the front end repaired but m stuck at the pump that drives off the crankshaft..... I'm the gearhead and I dont understand mounting anything to crankshaft other than a good balancer.....
The shaft was pressed in the LBP coupler if I remember correctly the pump is Wagner....
My buddy tried using the front end loader after we got it all together and it immediately trashed the rubber coupler thing...
So..... .my question is .....
Is this the correct kind of pump system drive system for the 1970 Ford 3000 front bucket ?
Is there a better option for front pump one that doesn't drive off crankshaft?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Tom
