Allis B with front end loader

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I've been so grateful and impressed by all the help with my recent post that it has emboldened me to ask a different question: How unusual and special is my little Model B that it has a front end loader?? Mine has a "manufactured" loader made by "Horn-draulic" in Dodge City Iowa. It's one of the big things that made me decide to buy this particular tractor because I live in the mountains of Colorado and hope to use it for snow clearing and hauling firewood. So how rare is it to find front end loaders on these smaller old tractors?? Bill

	Not very popular. After you use it a bit you will find it's limits and see why you don't find loaders on these small 2WD tractors. I don't know your particular loader, but I've seen a few B,C & CA tractors broke in half due to the stresses of a loader.
	If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY
