Prove me wrong and I'll APOLOGIZE." These are the numbers. They are facts, not my opinion. I still stand by my first statement that the 46A is a smaller lighter loader than the 148 and is less taxing on the new gen frontends than the 148. Was the lift capacity you stated for the 46A on a loader with the smaller(2.25") or larger(2.5") cylinders that are comparable to a 148 loader??????? Also no matter which loader is on a tractor the taxing of the frt axle has a lot more variables in it than advertised lift or breakout weight capacity. It will be interesting to see the difference in the distances between(mast & bucket pins) on the 2 above mentioned loaders. This post was edited by Tx Jim at 04:22:40 12/07/12. [Reply]   [No Email]
