| Just wondering what brand loader is best. Noticed agco tractors had agco loader, alo quickie and westendorf loaders on them. While on topic how much does a loader add to value of tractor. I know it's tuff to look at loader tractors because of abuse just curious. Thanks |

Westendorf builds a good loader. Easy on, easy off. Easy to change bucket, pallet forks, bale spear, etc. |

 I have a Westendorf TA46 on my 8030 I like it real well as said easy on and off and easy to change bucket. This is the only quick attach loader I have ever had so really can’t compare with others. I also have 2 180’;s with 500 AC loaders which are good but not quick attach

I was always partial to Westendorf. A loader does add quite a bit of value to a tractor but it's been my experience that when it comes time to sell, they will usually bring more separate than they will together.

| I have a 1984 Allis Chalmers 6060 with Cab 2 wheel drive tractor ,looking to install a Allied 795 loader on it, the Allied 795 loader is still on a Allis Chalmers 6080 Cab 4x4 tractor and I am looking at pictures to try to see if the mounts and loader will fit on my 6060, the air conditioner compressor on my 6060 set 2 1/2 inches outside of the left side removable engine cover, that looks to close to the loader frame to me,I know that Allied made a 495 and 595 loaders to fit a 6060 Allis but not a 795. Allied made a 595 to fit a 6080 2wd Allis Could anyone give me any info on if this Allied 795 Loader will mount to my 6060 Allis Cab 2wd with the same mounting from the 6080 Allis Cab 4x4. Need help and info Please..... |

We really like the DuALL loaders. They are built really well, not that others aren't. We had one of the old 326s (I think it is) still on a D19, and it is stout. We have two of the newer series quick mount 36xx series one on the 7060, and one on a 7020. The one on the 7060 has had a few repairs, but that is because we really use it to capacity, and sometimes beyond, and it never fails the ground freezes rough, even when a person tries like heck to take it easy on them cracks develop. My uncle has a kroyker, and I am pretty sure ours is far heavier built, and can lift much more. I have seen a few Westendorf loaders, and they also look really well built also. You can put a joystick on any loader, just may require a valve and some hydraulic line work. ------------- Still in use: HD7 WC C CA WD 2-WD45 WD45LP WD45D D14 3-D17 D17LP 2-D19D D19LP 190XTD 190XTLP 720 D21 220 7020 7030 7040 7045 3-7060 Projects: 3-U UC 2-G 2-B 2-C CA 7-WC RC WDLP WF D14 D21 210 7045 N7 |

| Any loader can have a joystick or use the tractor valves. The joystick is usually an extra option on all the loaders.. |

| I have found my Allis 545B rubber tired loader to be so much better than any tractor loader......you can about buy a 100hp wheel loader for the price of a good front end loader |

Any purpose built machine will out perform a tractor/loader. I got tired of taking my loader on and off and worrying about tearing it up with heavy bucket work. I found a old Massey backhoe and sold my loader off the tractor. Don't use the hoe much but the heavy front end loader is much better than a farm loader. My Dad bought a older NH skid steer. He's got a loader for his tractor but never puts it on with the skid steer around.
