Here are all my tractors. Starting with my heavily altered MF1650, aka MF2050 (20hp Onan, MF14 hood,grille, & dash-power steering added, oversize filled rears). Has my 2-bottom plow on it that I put together from two 10" Brinly's. Loader I built from scratch as well as the bumper. I got 1st place at local show over the weekend...first garden tractor show I competed in. I am happy about that!


Here's my Finished Allis 416H. I am quite proud of her. Hate to mow with her now, but it mows sooo good!


My MTD built "Unico 15"


My 67 MF12H


My Bush Hog JBI & D4-10



My littlest Massey, MF85 which I changed from 6 speed to hydrostatic & from 8hp to 12.5 IC Briggs & electric pto.

I've had as much as 750 lbs in the bucket, but don't lift very high when rolling. It'll lift as much as counterweighting allows. I think 400 lbs is a good weight to stay at or under for safety. You do NOT want to have bucket loaded & high at all (no higher than hood)when on even a small tilt. I loaded my 16' trailer full of old lawn tractors to go to scrapyard with the little loader. I put my forks on it that I use to clean calf stalls. Just drove forks under, lift then load. I had a pile on trailer about 5' high. Sure takes the work outta lifting heavy stuff. I dug a ditch for drainage tile in my yard last year during dry spell. Ground was hard as a rock, but the loader w/bucket dug it easily 18 to 20" deep about 80' long. Now ya gotta know that this tractor w/FEL mounted weighs in right at 1700 lbs, so the weight makes more possible. I do wish I'd taken the time to build it with auto-leveling system. I may redo to add this later, but time may not allow. The lift cylinders came off a New Holland hay roller. I cut the length down to what I needed. Those shafts are hard to cut! I shortened the bodies also.

Daniel, congats! I like that MF! Very impressed with your home made loader. How about some specs on it. Lifting capacity, tips, etc.

Congratulations on the win Daniel! You have an outstanding line up of tractors.

Outside of the winner, the one I like best is the Unico.
