Loader fit

Will a GB 800 loader fit on an M? It says it fits 460 and 560's. Dimention- wise will it fit (knowing I would have to modify/make brackets)? I just wasn't sure whether it was too long or short to make it work.

I would guess it would be a bit long since the 4/560 are 6 cylinders and an M is 4. Might be able to mount it back a bit though.

The distance between frame rails is the same on an M as the 460 and 560. Axle housings are very similar in size and shape.

Going by the pictures online, it looks like the GB 800 loader mounts like an IH 2000. If that is the case, the front mounts have a lot of leeway front-to-back, so the difference in length won't be a problem. The loader frame will just extend past the M's front end by an extra few inches.

Other than getting bolt holes to line up on the front mounts, you should have an easy time mounting it on an M.

Hopefully, your M has power steering or you're built like a 1980's professional wrestler.
