I've had a Farmhand 258 on a 4440 and a 4020. Worked well on both tractors. Farmhand 248 and 258 somewhat a copy of the JD 148 and 158 loaders I believe. We had a JD 158 on a 4020 when I was in HS. Recently purchased a 3020 and wanting to install a loader. Thinking the 148 or FH 248 would be ok. Also looking at Westendorf possibly a TA26. Easier on/off than the Deere loaders from what I'm reading. Anyone have a JD 158 or FH 258 on a 3020? I know the bucket is a little further out in front of the tractor compared to the 148/248, and a little more weight in the loader itself. I've heard (not sure if it's correct) the mounts for the 148 and 158 are the same. Just light acreage work at this time. No livestock. Opinions?
