Question #1-- I've just purchased a nfe Farmall 706 gas tractor with a narrow front end. I found a 656 with a nice wide front end and flat top fenders that is being parted out. Can I take the Farmall 656 Wide front end, and also the flat top fenders, off the 656 and put them on the 706? Is this easy to do? If so, when I take it off the 656, are there any parts (other than the axle assembly) that I should make sure to get off the 656? I don't mind if the 706 isn't 100% original, I just want the wfe to fit right. This is a work tractor not a show tractor.

Thanks- Matt

WFE will fit fine, no stop bolt involved on these tractors (only H/M-300/450 has that), wheel bearings are 460 size and smaller, probably wont matter with lighter use, loader might cause you problems, if genuine IH WFE and not Schwartz or others, the fenders if the flat top style should fit but you will need u-bolts for 706, diff is square axle housing are smaller than hex type on 706.

656 did not have as heavy wheel bearings as 706 and there is no stop bolt.

Yep, WFE should bolt right up. Not sure about the fenders. I think the 706 had a heavier rear end than than the 656, but the fenders are probably the same.

Just be creful when you pull the bolts out of the steering plate. I think one of the bolts is longer and acts as a stop during turning. If you do not get it in the right location you will not be able to turn on one direction or the other.
