7010 FEL Recomendations Wanted

[ridgwaym]

I am looking for recommendations for a third party FEL for a Mahindra 7010 CAB. Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Why third party?
I am not sure about a 7010 but I know KMW makes loaders for several different Mahindra Tractors.

We DID build that loader when the tractor was a current model. However, due to it's obsolescence, we no longer do. In situations like this, it's usually best to trade the tractor for one with a loader.

The loader should be fairly easy to find. Woods, Westerndorf, Koyker and others all make aftermarket loaders.

While this is true about them, as well as KMW, the loader market is not the same it was 15 plus years ago. All manufacturers have had their own, OE loader for quite some time. When this happened, a much higher percentage of tractors went to owners with loaders already on them. This left fewer sales opportunities for aftermarket loaders which has caused them not to engineer and tool up mount kits for them. It's just not cost effective. One of those companies MIGHT fit that tractor because it's an older model from their lineup, but I can promise you none of those companies fit any truly new Mahindra product from the past 5 years. The only exceptions would be Mitsubishi built stuff that the mount points didn't change from one model change to the next.

Late to the post, but I'm a rep from Westendorf and I can tell you first hand that we are still fitting new tractors with our loaders every day and are still servicing loaders that are 40-50 years old! We will have a fit for the OP's tractor with a custom set of brackets for his tractor that cost no more than the base loader package.

Just wanted to throw my two cents in . Can get a quote back at this link: Loader Selector | Westendorf
