Does anyone know the value of a loader for a A and are there many around? Thanks for the help.

Thank's for all the input, the tag on the loader is from Henderson mfg. Did IH make there own loader or were they all made by other mfg"s? Thank's Julia

I believe Wagner made a loader for the A/Super A at one time. Of course, you're not going to be able to pick up a new one these days, and I've personally only ever seen a handful for sale in the last 3 years, and then on Ebay, usually with the tractor.

They're not very common because an A is not a very good loader tractor. Weak front end and weak frame (i.e. engine isn't designed for the stresses of loader work) limit how much you can move with the loader. Lack of live hydraulics means an expensive PTO-driven pump that stops every time the clutch pedal is pushed.

If you have a SUPER A, which has hydraulics, you can pick up an IH 1000 (the famous one-arm loader), which aren't quite as rare, but still pricey.

You"re right, Super A"s were not intended for the stress of a loader. I have a Twin-Draulic 5704 that was designed for Farmall 100/140, but Dad got it to use on his SA. It fits and works, but it is a load on the engine and sure doesn"t help the steering either. [Makes for a nice show with my manure spreader hooked up behind.] (If you search the photo archives you"ll find a picture of it.)
When I started restoring that SA, I fouund the front axle broken at the pivot pin - that being because of using that loader.

The price would vary some due to the shape meaning no welds hoses in good shape and if the hy pump was good so price could be any where from junk to 1000.

The Farmall A's didn't have hydraulics. Some had an exhaust lift. Hal

Exhaust lift? Ouch, those poor engines... They used to make an exhaust air compressor to pump up your car tires, but quit supposively because it ruined engines... dunno if its true or not...

not true as they worked great. When you didnt have electricity and needed to pump up a tire they sure cut the mustard. You young fellers just dont understand how it was 60 or so yrs ago.

We had an adapter that would thread into the sparkplug hole on a 10-20 tractor so we could inflate tires if needed. Then we would fire up the engine and let the compression inflate the tire. Hal
