Weight for Kubota LA1251 loader

JimHam · Mar 17, 2015

I need to ship my Kubota M8200DTC with an LA1251 loader on it problem is I need a weight for the loader. I can find weight of tractor on Tractordata but no info on the loader weight. Anybody know where I can find weight on the loader. Google search doesn't bring up much about weight.

I'm pretty sure that's the weight of the tractor, not the loader.

I think my LA1001 runs about 1500 lbs.

OP - call messicks.

It's kind of misleading isn't it? At first I thought, due to the heading, that it was for a tractor with loader.

I went to that site and yes it is incorrect. Tractordata shows that as the weight for the tractor alone. There is also supposed to be two weights at the bottom of that chart one for 2WD and one for 4WD and there is only one so I figured that it is not accurate.

Do you have a trailer and a gravel pit nearby? Stone quarry... We buy stone and get weighed before and after. I bet they would do it for free.

Actually, if you just drive on the scale, the weight is displayed... just tell them you are just driving thru...

EDIT: What? There's something on the internet that's incorrect?!?!?

I agree bring it to your local transfer station, scrap yard, or pit and ask if you can run it across the scale then you will know exactly what it weighs.

+1 Always figured my FEL added 1500 to the weight of the tractor also. An M8200 is a much larger tractor with an 8 ft. bucket, so the loader must easily be another 500 or 1000 lbs. If a seat-of-pants number is needed, maybe 2500 lbs would work, if an exact number is required, the scale seems a good option.
