Ford bumper.

[Dmoore1188]

I recently acquired a 1954 Naa I'm in love
with it. When I got it there was some
front end damage due to not having a
bumper so after digging through my local
tractor salvage I found one that I LOVE I
conned the mechanic to take it off for me
(torching involved) anyway to the point.
I tried researching these bumpers quite a
bit and couldn't come up with much. The
last posts I could find were from 2003.
There have been some dramatic improvements
in the internet since then so hopefully
someone will know about them. The rear of
the bumper has REPUBLIC embossed on it.
Some of the other posts say theirs have
the words ATLANTIC or ATLANTA anyway
I'll add the pictures of it. Any help
would be appreciated the bottom photo is
the tractor it was on. The top photo is my
miss Betty with the bumper installed. I know the bumpers weren't homemade due to the fact there are a few photos lingering around google images of the exact same bumper.

Thanks

Kind of same design in a way like the one I removed off my 961 so I could mount a weight box. I'll have to look closer at it to see if it's stamped with anything. Just sitting in a corner taking up space now. It weighs every bit of 30#.

Very nice looking and classic design. Here is my front bumper on my Fergy TO30

Nice looking bumper - and tractor.
I don't believe I have seen that style before.
There were several types of OEM bumpers sold by Ford Tractor Division over the years and many aftermarket bumpers too.
The one that would be 'correct' for an NAA/Jubilee is the one below.
It is similar to those made for the 8Ns but a bit heavier and wider and had the stamped tongue for a ball or clevis.
I like the looks of yours better than the OEM ones.

I wonder how much weight you can put on the ball mount.
