I have a 1945 JD A Slant Dash tractor that runs great with a fixed narrow front and I have a 1950-51 JD A parts tractor with a wide front. Can the pedestal be swapped from the 51 to the 45? Will it fit? Will it bolt on? Thanks, Chic
 
Chic,

The frame and frontend assembly changed (approxiamtely 1947) at serial number 583999 with the new press steel frame starting at serial number 584000. The frontend design is different, early frontend pedestals were nicknamed (called) anteaters or duckbills. I do not believe the frontends will interchange.
