I currently own a WL-42 front-end loader, which is on a 185 Allis Chalmers tractor. I would like to state that this is the finest loader I have ever seen. This thing is incredibly easy to install/remove I cannot imagine owning any other loader.

I purchased my Westendorf loader (a TA-26) years ago, it is now on my third tractor (3020 JD, 1025 Belarus and now a 5303 JD) it is working as good as new.

I owned a weld shop, and I was continuously fixing and repairing loaders. When I bought myself a loader, I was determined it was going to be a Westendorf loader. Nobody else had one like it. Whenever they saw my loader, they would say, 'That's the stoutest loader I've ever seen!' It was built stronger, and I never had any trouble with it.
What really convinced me of the loader's strength is in the following story:
I had a fire break out in the barn, over 2,000 gallons of gasoline started on fire. I had my tractor and loader parked in the barn. The fire melted the tires right off the tractor, melted the tractor's hood and busted up the cab. The loader was scorched, the decals and hoses had melted off, but I wasn't sure about the loader's condition so I called my local Westendorf dealer to come out and take a look. He told me that loader had an internal I-Beam or double wall construction and the loader wasn't damaged. I couldn't believe it didn't split the loader's frame. Nothing warped, no welds were broken, the bucket was still in excellent condition. I couldn't believe the loader wasn't hurt - I took it up the road to a body shop, had it sand blasted, repainted, reinstalled the hoses and sold it.
That was a good loader. I had a dozer blade, bucket and pallet fork. Even after 10 years I never had to sharpen the bucket's blade. I leveled dirt, pushed out trees and sprouts, the blade stayed sharp. I really like the easy hook up system. I could sit in the tractor seat and see what I was working with. The low-profile allowed me to see to align the units. All I had to do was back up, hook on to the other attachment and I was back to work.
My Westendorf loader was a really fine outfit - that's for sure. If I were to go back into farming again, I definitely wouldn't buy anything but a Westendorf.

I am 71 years old and over the years I have owned 24 Westendorf running gears and used them for gravity wagons and hay racks. They are built like the Rock of Gibraltar--real heavy duty construction. They are the only loaders I buy.

I'm 71 years old and have farmed all my life. Over the years I have owned 24 Westendorf gears, 2 front-end loaders, and a grapple fork. I trust Westendorf--they are built real heavy duty.

Gentlemen, I just attended the Farm Progress Show at Decatur, Illinois. I want to comment on the equipment which you had displayed. I was impressed! I am a retired engineer with 12 patents and now go to such shows to see what is new and where things are going with machinery. Most of the stuff is just bigger and more expensive. Your engineers are to be congratulated for some creative design work. Please give one of them a pat on the back from an old man who did some innovative work in his time, too. Congratulations!

It's a fantastic loader.  Fits like a glove and has excellent visibility with the loader on.  Three neighbors are already looking at it.  This will give New Holland a run for its money.

I wish to thank all who had a hand in installing the TA-160 loader on my tractor.  Everyone was helpful and could not have done more.  I have now used the loader and it works great!  I know it will save me much hard work.  Thank you all.

I thought I would send you some pictures of the Brush Crusher I bought from you. I clear cut about a 1/2 acre of cedar trees that all were about 35 ft tall. I clear cut them off of a native prairie that I own. The implement worked extremely well and I am very pleased with it. The product was exactly what was promised.

I like everything about my TA-28 loader - It's the best.  I clear a lot of manure, as I have a lot of cattle.  I use it to haul wood and handle brush.  It's got good lift height (over 13') and works great for stacking bales.  I couldn't get along without it!  I really like the quick-tach bucket teeth.  They work really good for scooping manure, an you were the only company I found that had a quick-tack style so the teeth don't need to be bolted on.  When I want them off they're off and when I want them on, they're on in just a few minutes.  That's quite a patent and loader you have.

I received my BC-3000's last Friday, and I can't begin to tell you how useful of a tool they are. I was able to cut a large quantity of fire wood in a short amount of time, and the logs I was lifting was amazing. Overall, I am happy with my purchase, and I found myself looking around to see what else I could lift.

I'm very happy with the Cool Cap and the simple and heavy duty hardware.  What a difference a little shade makes.
