Westendorf TA 26 loader

[WFE270NWIA]

Anybody have any pictures of a TA 26 loader on a 1650, 1655, 1750, 1755 or similar Oliver tractor. Any pictures of the brackets would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I suppose you are wanting to fab the brackets is why you asked for pictures. You can call Westendorf and ask about brackets for that loader on those tractors. They will also tell you if the TA26 loader will fit on the small frame and large frame Olivers.

Honestly, I'd be surprised if Westendorf still made brackets for 60 year old tractors. Demand for them has to be near zero.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for. You can still get brackets, 1500 to 2000 dollars depending on the loader model. I just wanted a couple dimensions from them, but apparently that's proprietary information.

Can't blame them for not providing the dimensions since that is what they do as a business. Do you already own the loader? If so do you have the brackets for the tractor it came off of and were you going to modify them?

I figured the tractor was old enough they wouldn't care. Bought the loader on a consignment sale, brackets were supposed to be for a 1655. The front brackets are definitely Oliver or White because the 6 holes line up, but came off a tractor with a wider and lower frame. The back brackets nothing lines up. Going to cut new plates for the back and try to modify the front ones Like my boss at work used to say, if it was easy everyone would be doing it.
