Wondering if A pto can be in stalled in tractor Am looking at a massey ferguson 30 industrail but it does not have a pto , is it possible to install one in an older tractor

It may be possible. Many tractors with no PTO also were not equipped to allow an easy install. (gears or drive couplings missing from the original build.) Massy smart folks will know if the trans and or clutch system would need dramatic upgrades. Be sure to post your serial number and any tag codes. Jim

Does it have a cover plate where the PTO would have gone??? If it does very likely a PTO can be put on. If no plate then you would have to find a whole rear end off a MH/MF 30 to make it work.

First off, is there a hole with a cover over it in the rear where the PTO would be? If its just smooth back there (not even a hole), you're going to have to get a whole rear housing off a PTO tractor. And with an industrial, you still may not be out of the woods- they often have very different transmissions than ag versions (forward-reverse shuttle, etc). As Janicholson said, try the Massey board. And if you have a Massey dealer nearby that you're friendly with, ask to study his parts manuals for the industrial and the corresponding ag model- they'll often tell you what parts are unique to each, and whether the conversion is feasible.

At the very least, you're going to have to come up with the PTO parts, gears, engagement lever, etc.- I'm wagering that you'd be better off buying what you want in the first place.
