Loader for mf 6480 t3

[dannewhouse]

I'm thinking of putting a loader on my 6480, after reading other posts 966 seems best loader the 976 booms are too big in other posts.
How much would you expect a new kit to be? Cable control for like for like comparison.
I was thinking over 10k possibly 12k but my mate thinks nearer 8k. Makes a 6 year old kit dear enough at 5k?

Tractor has electric joystick for spools, would it be worth having it on this how does 3rd service work then.

Priced one for a 150hp size tractor and was going to be approx 8k ish.

Never happened as tractor was sold but that price didn’t require a joystick as tractor had an electro joystick that could’ve been used

Was going to be 12k extra for a new loader when I was pricing one lately for a 6cylinder tractor.

I had a 975 mf loader on a t3 6480 and it was too big. Get a smaller one .

It would need mid mount spools to operate through joystick. Ours just has taps you open or close to change between front linkage and loader. The third service works with buttons on joystick.
