adding a front end loader

I have a MF 202 maybe '72
I am getting a MF 135 1952.
Any chance I can put the front end loader from mine onto the the one I am getting?
 
I know on my 202 ('64 so it might be different) it would seem to have a few mounting options but because I have the model 200 loader and 220 backhoe they actually connect to each other as well as to the front and rear of the tractor frame. I think you might be able to only have that front loader as long as it has 4 points of connection. The 35 is the base model for the 202 with a lighter front axle and I think* the 135 is very similar.



Also this is the serial list for dates on the 202 and they only go up to '67 so you might have an older model or a different base tractor?

202 Serial Numbers:
1958: 301172
1959: 303158
1960: 305108
1961: 306169
1962: 306779
1963: 307923
1964: 309222
1965: 310067
1966: 311084
1967: 9A1001
 
Hi Mike I might be able to help you. I inherited my fathers 135 believe its around 1965 and last a year ago I purchased a mf 200 series loader at a farm auction. It stated that it had come off a 135 however there was alittle modification needed to make it work on my tractor. The side mounts boted up to the rear axle studs o.k but the grill guard needed some altering. My loader model used the side mounts as the resovioir. I removed the original control valve and drained the resovoir and capped ports and made a cover plate where the control valve was. I installed a divertor valve and installed a single lever control valve using internal hyd pump. The internal pump is only about 4gpm so the loader is slow but all I really use it for is clearing snow so it does fine. The front axle is alittle light for a loader others have recommended upgrading to the industrial 135 axle but as stated it only does light duty work. I have pics of the installation from when I brought loader home to finished product that may help you. Let me know if I can help.
