Loader L2500DT loader

carlav1410 · Jun 26, 2011

Hello all Again,
I Have got a L2500DT and have a chance to buy a loader LA450A for 1k that need lift cylinders and lower mounting bracket.
Also tried to find lift capacity for it but all i can find the La450 model not the LA450A.
Can someone tell me what the lift capacity is and is it worth 1k to buy?

Thanks to all for your Previous help

Most likely, it would lift 800-1,000lbs. Loaders usually run $3,000- $4,000. So $1,000 seems like a good deal....assuming you can find the missing parts.

i agree- lift would be around 900 lbs -thinking thats what book said. about twice the model number-1000 i is a really good deal if it isn't damaged-wondering why someone took it apart- these things aren't usually parted out.

LA450 capacity is around 1000 lb (450kg x 2.2 lb/kg = 990 lb). Which "lower mounting bracket" is missing? This loader has bottom cross frame that's pretty important. There's a thread here that has a couple pictures of one. The cross-frame has sockets for attaching and detaching the loader. It's maybe $500 or more new - if available. If that's what's missing, I'd pass. There's still too much needed for a complete loader.
