Hugh, I have heard that the weaknees on these axles are the mount. I know that these (4 bolts to frame) have broken before. I think my father had drilled and tapped larger threads twice. Now it either has 9/16" or 5/8". It bothers me that the wishbone is attached to the axle mount now that I see that I am the only one whos is like this. Most others are to the frame or block. Also, the strength of this axle is going to be tested, I have a brand new Koyker 220 loader that I am planning to install in the next few weeks. Man I hope I dont trash the axle with the extra weight. The loader has a 2800 lb lift capacity. I have heard about new Schwartz's, they still in business? I plan to keep this one a while, so I am investing good parts into it. Do I need to investigate attaching the wishbone to the block? I also want to put 10"-12" flotation tires on and the Schwartz info I have on a new 504 axle says no flotation tires, only narrow rib... Help.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
