Guest fireman #1 Posted December 6, 2008 Hey All I picked up a Brantly Loader for my D200. Will the main pump supply enough gpm and pressure to run the loader? I'm not sure of the requirement for this loader, but i would assume it is close to the ARK. I don't have a 3 point hitch "yet" but the lines are there. Worse comes to worse I cold fab a bracket and mount a pump and run it off the front PTO. Thanks, Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.5racer 14 #2 Posted December 6, 2008 Most of the D's ran the pump under where the mower deck is I believe by a belt useing the same pulley's the deck used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pond195520032003 27 #3 Posted December 6, 2008 Jeff, as stated the loaders have their own pump mounted to the front under the grill with a belt that runs up to the pto! dont believe you can run a loader off the tractor hydraulic system and wouldent be a good idea anyway! as far as i know brantly never made a front end loader i know they made the back hoes, that fit the D's aswell as others! you probably have an Ark or a Kwik Way the only others out there are Danco, and Johnson :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest fireman #4 Posted December 6, 2008 Pond, It is a Brantly. Got a big old sticker right on the side. Brantly Manufacturing made loaders and backhoes for Bolens and JohnDeere also. Looks almost exacly like the ARK. See this link: JohnDeere wih Branly Loader and Backhoe I am going to fabricate a bracket for a pump and run it off the front PTO as it should be.

baerpath 517 #6 Posted September 4, 2010 Dragging this one up from way back Just picked up a Bolens with a Brantly loader on it, was wondering how close of a fit it was Jeff. Looks like almost the same tractor in the picture except it has no engine Duane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 1,021 #7 Posted September 4, 2010 Duane, I ended up selling that D200. I put that loader on the C-81. The sub carriage is different but probably could be modified. I used a Kwik-way sub-carriage and modified the bottom of the uprights to mate it. It did fit well on the C but may be a little short lengthwise for the D.
