I often see posts about MF165 needing a front mounted hydraulic pump in order for a loader to work correctly. Does that mean in front of the seat? I just bought a MF 165 and was told it would make a good loader tractor.

One of the reasons some folks run a front mounted pump is that the pump is constantly pumping when the engine is running and when doing loader chores the loader works reguardless of the position of the clutch pedal. If you use the auxilary pump or if you tap off of the main pump to run the loader, the loader will ONLY go up when your foot is OFF the clutch or halfway off the clutch. Not real handy in most loader situations. The factory pumps will work but they are also a little slow. If you are doing "Hobby farm" stuff you might not notice it, but if you have 2000 round bales to load it's a PITA and you will surely get a cramp in your left leg too! Of coarse if you had to load that many round bales you probably wouldn't do it with a 65.

One more thing, that tractor in my opinion would not make a good loader tractor. I have one and it seams to have too small a front axle for a serious loader. But put it in front of a 3 bottom plow and it will run, excellent draft system.

"Front-mounted pump" typically means mounted to the front of the tractor (on the front of the front axle) and run by a front PTO shaft connected to the center of the camshaft pully. If you front-mount your pump, you will need one that runs efficiently at normal engine speeds (1000 to 2000 rpm). Rear-mounted pumps would attach to the rear PTO and would need to run efficiently at normal PTO speeds (~540 rpm).
