A few days ago a friend of mine (who I've know for a few years and knows my soft spot for wheel horse) struck up a conversation about his 520-H. We got on the topic of the loader I'm building and he said his boss has a WH with a loader. One thing lead to another and I went to look at it. Then ended up two days later picking it up. The tractor is a C-125 but I'm a little stumped on what loader is on it. I think its a Johnson just can't tell for sure.

What kind of loader did I buy?

It Might even Be a Ark Loader which Wheel Horse Used More When Wheel Horse was still it's own company I Think the Ark May have been Used Under AMC ownership as well:thThumbsU
I think you may be right Sergeant, looks very different from an Johnson loader I have seen but i mainly only check out the midget 10 and 10TC
Great find on the tractor/loader combo

All the ARK loaders I have seen have the dump cylinders on the top. That looks Johnson to me...
How is the loader attached ?
Here's pics of an Ark loader, note the big undercarriage and bucket cyls above the arms.

And pics of a Johnson loader with the simple "S" leg undercarriage and bucket cyls below the arms.
