Hi folks I have an eye on a Millport power loader off a 135...would it fit my 35? Do you think the internal hydraulic pump would cope or is there an external option....seems to work fine on the three point linkage lifting silage bales

The MiL Master was a trip loader and not a power loader - There are 2 convenient holes in the frame and i've seen conversions with a beam across the middle for a single ram, and also a ram at each side of the bucket. Both will work. The MiL master is a bit lighter than the Marquis which has a built in bonnet guard and legs for quick detach.
The MiL Mastiff - was the rear loader option - again - its good for light usage and would give you better traction - the trade off is the raging headache and stiff neck from twisting round in your seat to operate it. I mucked out a low shed with one on a B250 about 25 years ago. It wasn't tall enough for a tractor with a cab to get in.
If i was you i would go for the fore loader and put a big weight on the back of the 35 to give traction and take a bit of weight off the front axle.
For silage or hay round bales i remove the inner tines from the MiL graip, leaving the outer two and use it as a bale spike.
I worked away with the Mil master trip loader on a leyland 344 with no power steering for years. The addition of power steering was a joy. I would fit the loader and blow the tires up hard. It will work but might give you big arm muscles. Adding a rear weight will help. You can then decide once you have tried it whether its worth fitting power steering.The collective wisdom if I've read it right is to use a front loader and a weight on the three point to give traction...
The point for me going with that is the Sparex power steering kit at £439 after discount would be an expensive ornament if it doesn't fit with the Millport loader on....
Can anyone put me right in that....
Thanks all
