Any body have experience with an AC 470 loader on a 7000 series tractor? Any idea of the lift capacity? I'm thinking of buying one to load heavy equipment onto trailers. Trying to clean up the farm a bit... Alex |

We have had one on our model 7000 since the tractor was new off the lot. Works great! We do not push it really hard so it has lasted well. I have heard that if you do work it hard, you can crack the front mounts on the engine as the frame rails are not very heavy-duty and can flex. Not a problem on anything bigger that a 7010, from what I have seen. I do not recall the specs off the top of my head, but we can easily lift 2100 lbs. I would imagine that a closed-center tractor would have significantly more lift capacity, and you would not have to rev up the engine to get the flow. Would love to have another! None anywhere near us though haha ~Warren
