clemedc 29 #1 Posted August 20, 2013 I just picked up this Danco loader it is a model RD-1075 modified to fit a Wheel Horse. The proper loader would have been a WH-1075 I THINK???? Does anyone know If this loader is similar in size and weight to the Danco WH-400 used on the 701-702 style tractors? The biggest difference I see is the bucket has a hydraulic tip instead of the manual trip bucket. Also the pump has been mounted on the right side of the tractor and runs off the PTO there. I assume the pump is directional and must turn in its current direction so I wouldnt be able to mount it in the correct location in front of the tractor, (again I am unsure of this too) My plans are to mount the loader on either a 702 or 753 if it will fit and isnt to heavy since the 753 has a stronger front axle I am leaning towards it. OR possibly find a 1075 and mount it on that since It would fit better on a short frame and it moves nicely now on the smooth motion of ELECTRO 12 HYDRO Does anyone have any input or ideas as to what may be a good candidate tractor. If you look at the pics you will notice that with a long frame tractor the loader frame rest on the front tires when all the way down. I would also like pic of the proper mounting of a Danco loader on a wheel horse if anyone has any it would be appreciated. I am thinking of building the loader around a frame, Tranny and front axle combo with beefed up spindles if needed and basically start from scratch. I will post some better pics of the way its currently mounted later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dennist 139 #3 Posted August 20, 2013 I had one on a Cub Cadet and have pics of that, but the loader was a little different also. I can post some pics of that if you think it would help for your install? Just let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clemedc 29 #4 Posted August 20, 2013 Yes please post some pics anything will help. I am really leaning towards putting the Danco on a 753 and possibly adding a high low tranny. Time will tell. It also depends on what parts I come across. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CasualObserver 3,409 #6 Posted August 22, 2013 I'd love to find one of those light-weight little loaders for doing mulch duty around the place. That is a nice find. You just don't see to many of the old Danco loaders. It does look similar to this WH400 loader. These are some Jacktown show pictures that I think Buzz posted several years ago. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
