Moving a 450 WF to a 560?

Hello, I have a quick question and I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts. I have a Farmall 450 with a stuck engine, but it is a wide front. One of the replacement tractors I have found is a 560, but it is a narrow front. I know that my wide front is an after market, but I'm not sure of the kind. Does anyone have any idea if I could swap my 450 wide front and put it on the 560?

Thanks for any help
 
It should work. I think the frame widths are pretty close. A little time with a tape measure would let you know for sure.
 
Thanks for the advice! I guess I'll get out the good ol' tape measure. Anyone else ever done this?
 

Looks like the only part you might need would be the rear saddle assembly, but I'm not sure that the Speeco and Schwartz are interchangeable in that area.
 
The main 4-bolt spacing that mount the front-end to the bolster will be the same. The steering arm bolt spacing should be the same as well.

As for the rear saddle mount - pretty easy to fabricate with some heavy square tubing and angle iron.
