ford 1600 and loader

[pccarver]

Are ford 1600 able to accept a frontend loader? I am asking because i had a kubota l 185 in the past, and was told it wouldnt be able to be fitted with a loader. Something about rear and front hydraulics. I am thinking about buying the 160p but dont want to if i cant later fit it with a loader.

Buying a 1600 then looking for a loader to fit it is not a prudent strategy. The tractor is composed of a huge pile of obsolete parts and the available specimens of loaders that will bolt on and be in useable condition is small. If you want a tractor with a loader find a unit configured that way.

Thank you Rick B. Do you mean buy one with a loader already on it, or buy one that is configured to be fitted with a loader?

I read it like he says buy one with a loader already on it. That's what I would do as well, cheaper in the long run.

Well thank you both very much for your advice.
