JD 540M Loader with Global Carrier Questions

[Brown Dog]

I’m selling my 5085E 563 loader to make room for a gently used 5115M 540M loader :cool2:

The 540M has a skid steer carrier that I’ll have to swap it out for a Global Carrier.

Best I can tell I’ll need a BW16010

Will a Global Carrier off a H260 loader fit the 540M ??

I use to have a JD link on an old phone that showed all this info but I’ve lost it :confused3:

Deere parts shows the same number BW16010 as the global carrier for the H260 loader.

I thought both loaders looked identical

I’ve found Global Carrier off of a smaller H240 Loader.

Looks like H240 & 520M uses BXX10105

Is the 540M a MSL?

 

[Brown Dog]

No it’s NSL

Nice upgrade to the 5115M. I got the MSL loader on mine.

SL Loaders are Nice loading trucks but cumbersome, too tall in poultry houses restricting vision for everything else I do.

Yea. I get it. They have their purposes. And some things they aren't good for at all. For me it's 50/50. It's great with the forks but I would prefer to not have it for loader work sometimes.

The SL linkage also restricts bucket from curling down & back towards tractor as far as a non self leveling loader will.
