Hi all,

Im after a loader for my Ford 7840 and nothing second hand seems to fit a 6 cylinder machine or sells too fast for me to make my mind up. Couple of new options, border plant can supply me a Metal Te loader for around £5k + VAT but never heard of this make?

Other option is I go full in with a quickie type loader but they are £11k .

any suggestions?

Can’t keep more than one tractor and I need the 7840 for the hedge cutter.
7810 is the same engine I think so should be fine? I shall find it!

Did I not see Bob Coar advertising a loader for a 6cylinder 40 series recently?

I thought the same as @bobk but it was either put a loader on or sell her as couldn't really justify keeping it otherwise. I've a Trima on my 78 and it's a grand job, wouldn't be without it now. 77 be a bit more maneuverable but 99% of the time it's grand.
Loader only ever off for a week or two at silage time now, and even then it's a miss.
