YM 155D and Bucket Loader

mort_vining · May 30, 2007

I recently purchased a YM155D Bucket Loader that was built some time between 1978-1982. It did not come with a bucket loader. I have two questions:

1) Is it possible to add a bucket loader?

2) If yes, what is the aprox. cost?

Welcome to TBN. And congratulations on your new purchase of a dependable Yanmar tractor.

I am not sure exactly what you want. You say that you have a loader, but still need a loader.

Is it that you have a tractor and would like to get a loader

or is it that you have a tractor and loader, but the bucket is missing from the loader?

help us out here a bit.

Good Morning Mort,
I have a 155D tractor with a YFL155 loader, so yes, it's possible. I bought them together last year so I don't know how much the loader only would cost. I've never actually seen the YFL155 for sale anywhere. If you call Koyker I believe they have a small model for this tractor. I'm sure others will chime in.

I'm really very happy with it. I've regraded the backyard for drainage and now the wife wants a patio. Small bites, but still way faster than a shovel.

We also have a YM155, does your have power steering? I don't think ours do, that would make turning with a loader a bear.

Swedish- that is one tough looking Yanmar!!
