loader for B7100

[teach]

I'm looking for a loader, on the east coast, for a kubota b7100, 1983, 16hp, manual trans., 4x4. I have been told that the loaders for the b7100's that came out in the 1990's won't fit the older models. Any suggestions? I have a dirt scoop, which actually works pretty well, but I still want (need?) a loader. Ideally I would like to find one in or close to New England to save on shipping to RI. Thanks!

I can't help you with loaders in your area, but if you're willing to pay shipping you might look at

http://www.coldwatertractors.com/

I bought a loader from them which they custom fit for my tractor, for $1,500 - I'm not sure if they are willing to ship...

Also located near me (and far from you) is

http://www.cowlitztractor.com/services.html

they have a similar loader for $1,950 (discounted for no installation) - they advertise the loader on this site under the classified section, offer to ship, but leave the custom fitting to you. I've been to their business, but didn't buy because their prices seemed high - reading the archives, they were also discovered to be "planting" questions about their business on this site......

Good luck

Jeff

Chances are the aftermarket loader fit to your tractor is the best bet. Just make sure to size it correctly.
