Ford 3000 loader mounts

[Husker 50 8n]

Would Ford 3000 loader (Westendorf) mounts be the same as 2910 mounts? I would think rear mounts should be the same but possibly different mounts at the front?

2910 and 3000 have the same style front end... shoukd be the same.
Westendorf has a page on their website for matching loaders to tractors. www.loaders.com

The front axle and bolster are similar between the 3000 and 3910, so the front mounts should be similar. The 3910 has the rear axle with the dual reduction gears and the inboard wet brakes more like the 4xxx series. Because of that difference in rear axle housings, the wheel base on the 3000 is only 75.8" vs. 77.5" on the 3910, so almost 2 inches longer of a reach needed on the loader frame to get from the front mounts back to the rear axle.

Most Westendorf loaders mount to the front bolster and the bosses on the bellhousing. OP didn't specify if the loader frame goes to the rear axle or not.

Good point. If it mounts to the bell housing then it should fit fine.
