This Kwik-Way front end loader (model # 45-08411) is in excellent original condition and looks like it's barely been used. As far as I know, the setup is complete and will only need a drive belt for the pump. It was mounted on my John Deere 318 and I believe (but cannot guarantee) it will also fit 316 (later models), 317, 322, 330 and 332 -- maybe others as well, but please do your research to be sure. I use my 318 for mowing in the summer and moving snow (blade or blower) in the winter and need to find a new home for this. Built by Kwik-Way out of Sioux Falls, and I believe they'll still send you the instructions/owner's manual on request.
I've done virtually nothing at all to clean it up; the powdery rust in the scoop in a few photos is from some old tire chains that were sitting in it. (I briefly had it outside but under cover for a few weeks and didn't realize the tarp had let rain get into the bucket.) It'll blow off with compressed air, or I can pressure wash it if you like. The last pic in this ad shows how it cleaned up after rubbing on it briefly with some crumpled brown paper that was nearby. Aside from that, it's got only very minor wear from a bit of usage and is overall in superb condition. The lines, fittings, hoses, pump and controls look practically brand-new.
I'm uploading a few photos here, but there are many more in this Google album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/1E9WTJntJr23YN1x9
Asking $2,500 but open to reasonable offers in excess of the $1,800 I've been offered elsewhere. Any questions, let me know.
Thanks,
Brent
