I'd be interested in any feedback on Great Bend loaders. A NH dealer near me in NH (the state) equips all his tractors with it rather than the NH loader. Says there is substantially more lift capacity and it comes with a "universal mount" that allows that use of Bobcat implements. Also beefier. For a 1720 4WD he is asking about $900 more than another dealer that uses NH loaders. Not sure if the difference is the loader or some other factor. I have not seen any messages on Great Bend loaders previously. Must not be too common.

Gerat Bend is not a large player in the loader market for compacts in my area, but is arguably the best choice of aftermarket loader for larger tractors, and many are sold. They are well designed & built, and have cutting edge features (couldn't resist). If pricing is in line, I wouldn't be afraid of one at all, as long as the spec's on the comparison you are making are in its favor. ....

They are popular with some of the dealers in Central Colorado. I like what I've seen of the designs so far, theseloaders have some nice features. I also notice that they offer as an option the full-length mounting kits, whichthey call the rear axle support kits. The only way that I would buy a loader that did not carry weight right onto the rear axle is if that loader had been specifically designed for that tractor.....and I would expect the manufacturerto guarantee that the loader would not break the tractor. Back to the Great Bend loaders, a friend has one on his tractor and is pleased with it. Now he wants powersteering, though....so watch out! Roger Loving ....
