B1630 FEL on a L245DT???

[Binder pilot 53]

I have a wore out B7100 DT that has a very good B1630 FEL on it and have a chance to buy a L245DT. Can the B1630 FEL be made to work on the 245 or is it just to small to be practical?

The L245 is on the smaller side anyway so the B1630 would not be all that mismatched for it. I don't know about the bolt pattern for where the loader attaches to the bell housing and front area. You might be able to eyeball and measure a bit and get an idea whether the loader could be modified to fit. I adapted a newer loader to an older L345 story here . Best of luck.

Thanks for the info. I don't have the 245 here in front of me to check but was thinking the same thing. I have all sorts of fabrication equipment so that shouldn't be a problem. The FEL looks a little big on the 7100.
