MF 50 loader?

[wild_willie]

Hey y'all,
I have a ,57 MF 50 that I would like to put a FEL on (assuming that one can be mounted). Can anyone steer me in the right direction how to go about finding one?
Thanks,
WW

You SHOULD still be able to buy a NEW one believe it or not. Same loader fits MF100 series (150/165/175), many 200 series (240/245/250/255/260/265/270/275), even some of the newer 400 and 500 series tractors are very simular. Last I looked, many aftermarket brands still offer loaders to fit those tractors. An added benefit of owning a tractor that hasn't changed much in half a century.

Next bet....Watch EBAY and/or Craigslist. Loaders pop up all the time for that tractor. The "MF" loader that is most popular for that tractor was (is) the model 200.

FWJ,
Would you happen to know a certain brand or model #?

FWJ,
Thanks for the lead...I found a bush hog 2337 that will fit a 50 but for $4999. Ouch! That's $2000 more than I paid for the tractor...I guess I'll try to pick one up used
Thanks again.

Not sure of specific models, but I've seen a number of 'em with GREAT BEND (Bush Hog) loaders around this area.
