2001 Steiner 230
I just recently purchased a Steiner 230 tractor which I bought mostly for mowing. I would like to put a front loader on it if possible. I've looked around but I can't seem to find anyone who has done this. I know Steiner makes one for the 430, but apparently it's not officially available for the 230/235. Does anybody here know if it's possible?

I work at a Steiner and Ventrac dealer. Steiner made the loader for only the S-16, S-18, S-20, 420, and 430 Max tractors. Sorry, but to put my little bit in there, and older Steiner is will last longer than a new one, but will be a little bit harder to work on. I don't have a whole lot of experience with the 220, 230, and 235 series tractors.

The SS248 slip scoop works pretty good. That is what I use on my 230. It takes some time to get acustomed to working it with the 2 wheel drive. It has saved me alot of shoveling.

Yeah, I went ahead and got the slip scoop. It does work pretty well. It has already saved me a ton of effort on various projects and I'm happy with it.

You are correct that it takes some getting used to with the two wheel drive. I wish the tractor had more bite so it could muscle into stuff that I try to pick up. Overall, it works pretty well.
