John deere MT cultivator

[kendalinmn]

I have a narrow front MT that has a mt200 2 row cultivator. Does anyone know if a wide front will work with the cultivator? I never remove the cultivator so im not worried about mounting and dismounting. If it does work, which wide fronts fit? MT, 420 ect? I use it to cultivate cabbage and the narrow front runs over leaves. Thanks

Just for thought —- can you use (or find) a single front wheel.

The cultivator should work with a wide front end. You might have to adjust your rigs some. I ran a 400 series 4 row cultivator on a late A with a wide front and it worked fine once you got it on the tractor.

I possibly could use single front wheel. I think they are hard to come by too

Possible other colors would fit. IF your steering bolster just has a 4 bolt mounting plate it would be possible to fabricate a single front wheel assembly. Front end of an mt cannot be that heavy. Had a neighbor years ago with a 2010 jd. Forgot what happened but he broke a front spindle on his wide front end. Called me to see if I could help him get it to house or see what could be done. While I was looking at it he mentions that when he bought it used it came with a narrow front. Said it is in barn. We went and looked at it. Less than an hour I had it under his tractor and he was good to go.
