I am little jealous of the HT23. Do you know where any other loaders are hiding? I am heavy in the market for one, even if it had a backhoe that would be cool.

Yeah,looking for a large frame loader or tube frame loader for my dad's 1556. I would like to put one on either my HT23 or 1886 if I got a large frame loader. Ask your friend if he ever wanted to sell one.

i will look around.. it dont hurt to put up wanted ads on here or if your a member on gardentractortalk.com that another great forum and craigslist... also keep your eye on ebay but dont look for them under bolens loaders you will never find one... search like small tractor loader or garden tractor loader... if you can weld they sell plans to build loaders and backhoes for compact an GT's

theres a jonson 14 on ebay in pa witch will go right on a ht or 1886 you just will have to make the brackets to mount it.. it came off a j.d 400 he wants 1750.00 but offer him 1400 or something its worth 15 to 16 with the pump and resivor it willl take a few mods to make it work bit nothing magor.. your not going to find ond one for under 1200 unless its a P.O.S this loader looks great
 
Thanks! I will check that one out! There is a guy up here with a 1477 with origianl Johnson, the only thing is it might need a pump. The tractor was repowered with a 16 horse Briggs. He wants 1500. Do you think that is a good deal? I am planning to put it on my 1886, or maybe just my 23. I might have a different person call him like my brother, I think I can get him for like $1300. Then the tractor is worth like $250, because it is missing the PTO. Then the tractor money would then buy a pump.

i seen that on ebay.. as long as the loader is not been broke anywhere and welded back together or twisted and the bucket is good i would say 1300 is a deal... you can get a pump pretty easy. DO NOT try to run the loader off the tractor hydro system that a no no
 
Don't worry, my family has owned more Bolens large frames and tube frames and loaders, etc. That you have seen. We have owned most of every model of the Husky series and the HTs. We have been doing for over 20 years, we know what to do.

just trying to let you know thats all, you dont have to get defensive about it, and if you and your family have and had more bolens tractors you must of been a dealier lol bc i own 16 bolens plus my other brands, but i was trying to help you thats all sorry if i insalted your knowledge...
 
Don't worry about it. I always like to take advice from older guys anyway. my dad does not even know everything, he still learns a lot and sometimes I teach him. We were not a dealer, but my dad has just loved them for a lot of years. Sorry if I got too defensive.
