JD loaer - QA, Global or Deere?

[andrewj]

confused as there are three ways of attaching a bucket to the loader! I dropped off my 5105 to get the 553 loader yesterday. Looking at 73 inch heavy duty bucket. Just not sure about the attachment, any input is appreciated!

I just responded to your other post...

I would suggest the SSQA.

What Kenny said.

Global would be my second choice, global would be my first choice if the loader was any bigger.

If the 'global' is what I would call 'euro style' I'll vote for that. Stronger and more easy to use than a SSL coupler. The last coupler I would consider would be a proprietaty style such as Deere's.

Global= euro

I really looked at the global loader attachment on the JD website. I couldn't figure out if the lower pin configuration was an electric over hydraulic or straight electric or straight hydraulic operator.

And the pin configuration appeared to be a likely source of frustration when using with ice, snow or that wonderful combination of ice, snow and mud (or throw in a little hay and manure into the whole mix). It seemed to me that getting the lower pins either in or out with those kinds of conditions would be a time of "blessing the implement" and thinking of ways you'd like to torture the engineers who designed it..

I have the SSQA and the neighbor has the SSQA on his JD 542 FEL. It works and it's real simple..
