Bear with me if you will please. I'm experimenting with photo sizes.
If you will click the address below you will see that the loader looks better on this tractor. The Kubota looks too small.

| Looks great Chris, and yes, more proportionate on the diesel. |

Tom the rear hangar straps for the deck are 8" from hole to hole on center.
Hope this helps.

Daniel this Bolens must be quite a bit bigger than the Kubota as I can pick up the same weight without
all the ballast. Also the combination feels quite a bit more stable. It's been a long enjoyable project
and one I hope that will remain problem free.

That looks great! However I think that loader would look better on my Allis!  I bet it will be a real workhorse. |

You could be right about the Allis. Simplicity and Allis make great machines.
I've learned my lesson about one thing for sure. If you put a loader
on a tractor make sure that your rear axle shafts are supported by the differential housing all the way out to the
wheels or you will be replacing axles.

| Thanks for the pics, Chris, I know all you have to do is walk me thru this, but the front adjustable arms flip forward to the front mount, right? Initially i thought they were solid in that position. What kind of loader is that on the bolens, looks good. Thanks again,Dave. I got it all figgered out, thanks again |

Yes the brackets go forward and actually attach to the outside of the tractor brackets. I've looked at those things several times and they don't look right but they work like a charm.
The loader is a Johnson Work Horse. It's a clean looking loader but it doesn't have the self leveling bucket like my Kwik-way does.
When push comes to shove I'm keeping Johnson and selling the other.
