Super C Loader: Is it Factory or Home Made?

FarmallJon · Jun 12, 2011

Hello all, I just did some horse trading yesterday and came home with this Super C. I don't know the year because I havent checked the serial number yet. I'm wondering if the loader on this tractor is a factory built unit, or if it is homemade. If it is home made, someone did a nice fabrication job. The tractor also has a sub frame for connecting a snow plow. Not sure if that is a factory item of some brand? Also, there is a hydraulic pump on the right side of the engine that powers the hydraulics for the loader. I'm assuming this tractor must have another factory installed hydraulic pump somewhere that powers the rockshaft? Anybody seen a set uplike this before?

I would say that it is a homemade loader. The hydraulic cylinders are A-C. I have same cylinders on two of my loaders.

Hi, the loader mounting frame that is attached to the SC appears to be very similar to the mounting frame of a Henderson loader we had on our SC many years ago.

I'd say the loader in homebuilt... cylinders look like Cessna. Cessna made cylinders for many manufacurers, AC, IH, JD... just about everyone.
Pump on the side of the engine is normally for the Touch Control and Fast Hitch... should be steel lines going back to the "box" under the gas tank. your's seems to have the T-C arms removed and probably never had F-H.

Somebody did a pretty darned good job, didn't they?

Hey Pard, not trying to speak out of turn here, but you'd better be for getting some truss rods on that thing before you use the loader.

Your little tractor is just waiting to split in two.

Run 'em from the white mounting plate back to the under the rear axles to give that torque tube some support.

When they come down, it just is not pretty.

Id say its adapted, factory made, but not all home-made.

Iam thinking the same thing. Needs a frame going back to the rear axle. That torque tube is not too large to take that kind of strees.

It looks like a factory made loader to me, but, i have know idea as to the brand.

From the bottom of the side brackets (at least 14 inches below the bolster) a compression (channel iron, or pipe) should be installed to a bracket made for the back axle. and attached under the axle. Loading the front lifts the middle of the tractor. Jim
