I don’t have any first hand knowledge of issues with SS and front end loaders just seemed with a heavy load in the bucket would be putting quite a strain on those upper and lower bushed supports. Keep them well greased maybe they’d be fine. Be nice if someone that had one could chime in with a report.Great post. The one I was looking at has a loader. And I do have a lot of loader work to do. And that was one of my concerns.
I figure they probably built the SS to withstand the demands of the loader two fold, but it still causes me some trepidation.
Out of curiosity how many hours were on that 5085E ? Nice condition? You know what loader model was on it ? Good luck searching
