I have recently purchased a 1980 B6100 4x4. She needs a little TLC but this is what I enjoy doing. I'd like to find a loader and rear wheel weights. A rotor tiller would be good too. I'm in the Kansas City area but can travel for the right price/items. Thx for reading my ad.

Try calling 1980.

A loader will cost more than that tractor. Sorry for the reality check.
Wow! Sarcasm? If thats all you have please keep it to yourself. Sorry if you have no appreciation for older equipment. No actually I'm not sorry. Smart ass remarks serve no purpose so again, keep them to yourself. I see a ton of people replying to questions on this forum with respectiful helpful responses. Yours not so much. You have a good day sir!

Welcome to the forum. I notice you reside on the correct side of the state line! I'm down south of Olathe 25 miles.

Mikester may have more direct then you like, but what he said about the loader is pretty accurate, but the real problem is not only finding the loader but you also need all the attachment hardware. There is a member here "Mountain man" who has some salvaged tractors and my be able to locate a loader for you.

Yes loaders for B6100DT and B7100DT's or really any of these 40 year old tractors is really hard to say the least.
One big issue is the drive for the pumps have long been obsolete, so you would need to modify the existing hydraulic system, and even doing that a loader is going to be slow to operate.

And rear wheel weights for them is equally hard.
If you do find a loader just do a ballast box for rear weight.
