This loader is a Westendorf TA 26 and I have had it on an 806, 560, and this is the second M. No fabricating necessary. Just unbolt and bolt back up again. The front end is a Norden I got from Cowman with the old stock Farmall three hole hubs, and the front tires are 11LX16 aircraft tires from Gensco out of Houston, Texas. They are very good with our thorns down here in the Ozarks as the thorns won't penetrate the 20 ply tires. The only down side is ya have to keep it under 225 MPH as that is what the tires are rated for. Says so right on them. The rims I cut in two right around one side of the indentation in the center of it with a torch, laid a 2" wide piece of 3/16 strap iron in the middle and welded up both sides both inside and outside. This makes the rims about 8" wide and works real good. I have these "home made" rims on both M's with wider tires on front so weight on the frontend don't bother anything. As far as weight on the rear axles goes, I don't do anything with this but feed hay and move stuff and don't use chains, and it isn't near as heavy as say an old 2MH cornpicker or something. Harley
