Question on Wide Front on 340 Farmall

Does anyone have a picture or own a wide front end on a Farmall 340 that can show which is the correct one. Do they have the tie rods out front and are the wheels open cast or solid steel. I think one of mine might have a Super C under it with the tie rods out front but maybe the early ones had that?? Thanks for any help Migraine
 
No picture, but my parts catalog shows the tie rods for the 340 wide front to be the same part number as the 240 through 504, which would put the tie rods behind the axle, and would also indicate pressed steel wheels rather than cast.
 
We had one with wide and single tire front end. Wide front end has tie rods in front.

Migraine: Your respondents mention everything from SC, 200, 230, 240, 340 and 504. All had the tyrods out front on IH factory wide fronts. They were cast spoke wheels up until the end of Farmall 230 production, then went to disc wheels.

I had a 504, had neighbors with SC, 230 and 340 and all had IH factory wide fronts. As far as I'm concerned the whole front end was the same, possible exception being the pivot that bolts to front bolster.

On the subject of wheels, I suspect they will interchange on the spindles as it applies to cast spoke hub versus disc hub. I know my SA and 130 both cast spoke will interchange with 140 disc hub, as it applies to fit on spindle. Not saying the offsets are same size spindle as others.
