Cockshutt 35 narrow front compatability?

[Olaf]

I have a Cockshutt/Blackhawk 35 with wide front. If I want to put on a narrow front, does anyone know what models of tractor would be compatible? ie: a narrow front off a Cockshutt 30 would work. PS-no, I don"t want to sell the wide front, just want to pickup a narrow front.

All front ends from 35's, 40's and 50's are interchangeable - so to answer your question, you can use a narrow front end from a 35, 40, Co-op E4, 50, or a Co-op E5.

How about a Cockshutt 30?

Nope, narrow off a 30 won't work.

I think the larger frame 35,40, & 50 were Cockshutt made, the ones on a 30 were made by ross. Also keep in mind the steering shaft on a 30 goes down along side the engine where the larger frame tractors the shaft went over top.

Excellent, that's for the info!

And that goes for parts in general- 35, 40 and 50 are virtually identical tractors, with different engines. 30 is a completely different tractor, I'd be surprised if any parts interchange.

Cockshutt 35 40 and 50 narrow front ends are hard to find ,same as wide adjustable front ends for the 35 40 50 tractors

I think the 30 did share some engine internal's with the 40 and the front wheels and hubs. But of course that is picking a nit.

For the majority you are right. 30 was pretty much a vendor tractor with the Cockshutt designed Live PTO. Cockshutt made the frame, PTO, and sheet metal and that was pretty much it on the 30.

35, 40, & 50 were pretty much all Cockshutt except for the engine. And yes the transaxle was the same in all three.

Yes, a 30 front will bolt in. You will have to cut your steering shaft and run it down takes 4 or 5 knuckles.

I just got off the phone with a local tractor junk yard. He pulled up the part number on the front end of a Cockshutt 30, T08859, on the 35 it is a TG08559. Does that sound right? And if so, does that mean for sure it won't fit? It is local so I could go look at it, anything I should check out for compatability?
