Looking for a FEL for my 2014 BX2370 (has loader valve) new or used (ideally used which is I know is hard to come on a standalone basis). Does anyone have the Woods LS72 loader on the BX2370? I am getting mixed messages that they may not fit it. I am also being told that Woods is getting out the front end loader business, don't know if it is true. Anyone running a Koyker loader on a BX2370? If so what model? I know could go with the Kubota LA243 loader but I am hearing it is in the $4 grand range which seems steep. Any ideas or other options for a FEL?

thanks

I suspect Koyker could suggest which models would be best suited to your tractor. Wherever you go a new loader will probably be in the $4000 range. It may be simpler (and cheaper overall) to sell your tractor and buy one which already has a loader.

You could try EA, provided you already have a valve & joystick installed.

According to website that's out of stock, but looks like a really good option for a BX without a loader, and substantially cheaper than the OEM loader. I wasn't aware EA had started making (importing) loaders.

I live in Denmark, Europe, and was quoted €3600 for a genuine Kubota LA243 situated in Ireland, adding at least €750 in shipping costs.
Then I stumbled upon the Polish made Sanko loaders, which even have a video of it mounted to a BX2350 just like mine. It's less than half the price of the LA243, delivered to my doorstep.
The LA243 is much more elegant, and I particularly dislike the diagonal braces from the top of the towers, that wrap around the nose. There are no used Kubota loaders for sale on the European market, only a scammy ad for a burned BX with loader.
