[AT] Loader removal - 53 NAAcFord

[Cecil R Bearden]

I almost bought one of these when I was looking for a tractor.  Down 
here in OK, you only find them used as a loader and you can never find 
one with the 3 pt on the other end.   I wanted one to swath hay in front 
and bale in back.  As usual when trying to find used equipment here in 
OK, it would have been a small fortune to get the 3 pt arms and the PTO 
on the loader end.  I also wanted to use one with a brush cutter  on the 
front end loader.  However, the ones I found did not have the  PTO on 
the loader end.    A good friend, an old timer that had seen these 
operate, said that most of them burned up from hydraulic lines leaking 
onto a hot manifold.
