Loader on a WC

[Texgasser1]

Can a loader be safetly mounted and used on a Allis Chalmers WC With a wide front end?

Probably yes but you would have to work around the hydraulic issue. Either pto, belt or front crankshaft.

I was thinking pto pump.

I would think so, My '37 WF had a loader on it before I bought it but the loader was gone when I bought it. From what I recall they had a belt driven hydraulic pump to run the loader as this tractor didn't have PTO or a flat belt pulley on it. The pump was v belt driven off the crank pulley. I think the wide front on the WF would be about the same as a WC wide front. This loader had a pretty big snow bucket on it the former owner used it to plow his driveway for his house and repair shop.

I'm sure it could. Which wide front though? The original WC one, or a WD? No way I'd risk damaging an original WC wide front.

Yes, a loader can be put on a WC. I have a 37 WC that I put a loader on. The previous owner had a different loader on it and installed a front pump on it. My grandpa also had a WC with a farmhand loader that used a pto driven pump.

Thanks for the info.

I believe it is a WD front end, Not entirely sure what the difference is.

The loader for the WD and WD-45 should bolt right on however they are made for the high pressure hydraulic system of these tractors. I would also recommend a front crankshaft driven pump so you will have live power. A pto pump will not function any time you release the clutch.

Interesting, Thank You for the info.

Without power steering you will have a tough time steering if you have any significant weight in the bucket. If you use it mostly for pushing or grading you'll be fine w/o power steering.
