I would appreciate suggestions on heavy duty quick change aftermarket loaders to fit a White 2-105.

I am looking at Westendorf, Bush Hog, Koyker, and several others that have quick change mounting and QC buckets.

Any good or bad experiences to report?

Any advantages of design or construction of one over another?

How would you rate the ease of mounting?

Does your model of loader clear the satchel style front end weights?

Also, can anyone confirm that the loader mounting brackets to fit a White 2-105 are the same as those to fit an Oliver 1755/1855/1955 frame?

Thanks to all who respond.

Kerry

Kerry: I have had some experience with various loaders on late model Olivers. On my 1755 & 1855, I had a Bush Hog with a 7 foot bucket that was a real S.O.B. to mount. The loader had to be on extremely firm & level ground & then you had to drive "perfectly" into it to keep from knocking it off its "jacks". It was so frustrating that it stayed on too long & then wasn't used as much as it should have been after it was taken off because it was such a pain to reinstall. I now have a Westendorf WL-21 on my 1650 & it is such a slick thing to mount that it is, in my opinion, the best medium sized loader available. Another loader that I have seen a couple of times on the 17-18-1955 tractors is a John Deere 720(?). There are no ready made brackets for the Olivers using this JD loader, but there is a "partial" bracket available from JD which can easily be welded to a couple of 1" by 6" steel plates that bolt to the side mounting pads on the Oliver or White front frame. This particular loader & bracket combination will leave the front weight mounting pad open for use for weights if you have the big heavy slabs or the stack weights. My choice for the 17-18-1955 tractors would be the Westendorf WL-42 with a 7 foot Quick-Tach bucket. The WL-42 is a good match for the size & weight of the tractors & seems to be a very tough & handy loader. They are also very reasonable in price if you shop around. I have found that the price on a Westendorf can vary a lot for the same exact loader depending on how bad a dealer wants to sell one. Good Luck !!!!! Dave Greif

Dave,

Your response is EXACTLY the type of information I am looking for.

THANK YOU...!!

I have been considering a 10 year old Westendorf WL-42 with Oliver brackets for $2500 and your comments have reinforced that potential choice.
