Ford 7411 tractor loader

Bruce from Can. · Dec 5, 2009

Maybe someone could tell me if Ford built the 7411 loader that is on my 5640 Ford tractor , or did Frod have these loaders built for them by some other company. I really like this loader, but maybe it is time to update my loader tractor, but I cannot find a loader that comes close to the same standard. I have looked at CaseIH and NewHolland which are the same Alo I'm told. And the Kubotas are just Allied loaders bult for them and painted orange, with a Kubota #. That is what the local dealer told me, so any insight on this would be great, as I could get the loader I want put on any make of tractor. Kind of ticks me off that I can't get a north american built tractor in that 70 hp range, and all are old brands are just names put on all too often substandard imports.

Kubota always HAD an ALO loader painted orange, at least on the tractor size you mention.

McCormick. Case IH, New Holland, Valtra, MF, uses ALO as oem for some or all of their loaders.

By the tractor you want and put an ALO on it

I don't know who made the 7411 loader but I'm 99% certain it wasn't Ford.
I believe most OEM's today are selling rebranded ALO Quicke loaders, NewHolland AND Kubota included.
Alo is a good loader. Far better than many of the older Ford loaders, most of which were noted for breaking at the cross member. The ALO shouldn't do that...

Beyond that, your 5640 is no more american than any other tractor out there today. In fact it's 100% Brit; still a considerable step above the italian stuff they're selling today tho.

Yes I was aware that the 5640 came on a boat, and I guess if I have to replace it the next tractor whatever it is will too. But the loaders are usually built in north america , and I would like to know who built the one I have.

I looked at a bush hog brand loader that sure looked a lot like a new holland style loader for a 7710. maybe it was just the brochure.

I'd ahve voted for Frey, but I don't think the 'Ford' loaders had any direct cross into the off brand loader market. Most likely some cobble up that was made to their specs by someone else...
