What is the difference between a 40 and 44 John Deere loader ?

And will either fit a 140 H3 JD.

4?

The 40 is the one for the 300 series I believe (without checking first) & the 44 is for the 425-455 series & others? I don't think they'll fit the 140 Noel but I have a 1655 it would fit if you know of any?

I found this on the 44 loader:


Looks like it's for the 316 and up. I'll see what I can find at JD Parts.

According the JD parts, you have it backwards. The 40 is for the 425>. Not sure what loader was used on the 140's.

EDIT: Looks like a Johnson-Arps was used for the early loaders. Bet the 44 can be made to fit.

Thanks Kenny, I couldn't research it properly at the time.

I did see a 318 JD for sale here, where I live, a while ago, and it had a number 40 loader, if I remember correctly. Must be a difference in width for different models of tractors ??

May be, plus a different frame?
