 Looks like a schwartz. You see many of these bolted to U MM's. all you did was bolt the front end on the tractor. Took off the narrow front spindles and bolted on a arm that goes to the tie rods. Most wide fronts on Farmalls is a Schawrtz. The factory Ih front ends weren't that good so most of them were changed.

Those don't look like Schwartz parts to me. Tube maybe. Spindle arms and tie rods NO.

That little tank under the hood and the parts that go with it are probably worth more than the rest of the tractor.

I agree Lonnie.  I missed out a month or so ago on a WD45 with factory power steering that was tight with good rear tires for $700.  I figured it was a deal as you'd pay $500 for the complete power steering setup alone.

It's a Schwarts, have the same one on one of my 45's. Tubes are a lot more beefed up than the stock AC wide fronts on 45's.
