New to the forum and just purchased a WD45 w/ frontend loader. What is a realistic weight limitation for the bucket. Will it lift 1000 pounds?

I would say yes, but will be hard to steer and unless weight added, very light/poor traction.

I had one on a wd and honestly it would pick up 1500 but that was it. I know because I was picking up 14 inch h pile at seventy some pounds per foot , just be careful when you let it down because with a heavy load she drops quick |

WD 90 loader was listed as 1500 lb lift capacity. and came with a 9 CF bucket. which is about 1100 lbs of manure. Mine with a set of wheel wieghts and a cab has no problem with 1000 lbs. it will get hard to steer. Rember to always carry your load as low as possable. f I need to move anything heavy more than just a few feet I lift it up back the trailer under and move it on the trailer.

The loader is straight . But it has quite a bit of reinforcment welded to it. It is a lot better than a heat houser. the warm air from the engine blows bak and I don't need any more than normal street clothes. In the summer the canvas fwd part and rear door come off and the windows open.

Back when my pump was turned up a bit, I could push the rims to the ground with 35PSI in the front tires.

Thanks a million to all who have replied on the loader capacity post. I look forward to many good years in sharing the retirement years with this old girl doing the lifting by my side...
