953 nut 55,083 #2 Posted December 16, 2018 The FEL mounts onto a sub-frame. If you can obtain or build a sub-frame to mount the loader to then it will fie just fine. The idea behind the sub-frame is to distribute the additional weight directly to the front and rear axles without stressing the frame of the 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoeM 7,871 #4 Posted December 16, 2018 Probably worth it to a John Deere owner. To much modifications at that price for a Wheel Horse. If it were half that price or so It would be worth the hassle. Might want to wait and get something bolt on??? JMTC 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DET 105 #7 Posted December 17, 2018 Paintman, I bought a 520xi from an auction last February and decided that I too wanted the FEL. I was able to buy a Kwik-Way loader but had to get the sub frame made. Manual 79947 has pictures that will be beneficial when you do need the sub frame. I agree with OILUJ52 that it does sound high on the price. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
