Old ford rear loader

Jim Bogart · Nov 20, 2013

My great Uncle had a early 9n Ford tractor and He had a loader that hocked up to the 3 point and worked of the 3 point.
It had a small fork bucket and did not lift very high. I would like to know if any one has seen one and might have pictures and more information about one?

I have one.It was made by a 'shortline' mfg.Dearborn also made one.Never have used it.It will only lift high enough to clear small manure spreader.About 4 -5 ft.It uses a scissors linkage of sorts to achieve the extra hight.

Guy about a mile from us has posted one on CL from time to time along with other implements. Don't know if he ever sold it.

Here's a picture of one for sale for $170.

Made by Ford.

The dealer brought one out for us to try (back in the day). It was a really awkward piece of equipment to use. We tried it one day and told the dealer to come and pick it up. Two guys with pitchforks could move as much material as one of those, with less inconvenience.

I've seen one work on that vintage video someone here posted up a couple of years ago.

It was a ford film in black and white. Had a guy break down in his car and some pretty girl came along on her tractor and then proceeded to show him the ropes of the farm life and what a tractor will do for him.

...or maybe I dreamed that...not sure anymore.

I have a three point loader made by Forano of Canada. It looks quite old and has seven forks,each 24"long and the bucket is 34" wide. Has linkage bar plus chain for height adjustment.

I bought a near new one of those last spring for $40.00 at a farm auction.But it wasn't a Ford...

Dearborn made one. My Dad had one. It used chains and a scissors linkage to lift. It would load the old smaller manure spreaders. It beat a pick fork in hard manure by a little bit.

Loafing watching my nephews changing tires.

I remember as a little kid watching our neighbor use one. Ayear and a half ago there were two for sale within a days drive. I should have bought one. They would be good to talk about at shows.
