We were told similar from one dealer and also that we could damage the machine. Other dealers were not so negative and we went ahead and put a loader on our normal steering one. We have our loader on the bonnet end and it does need something on the linkage as a counter weight to lift anything sensible. We work the machines hard sometimes on steep ground and using the loader has never been a problem, always seems stable and we have never broken anything on the machine. Having the loader on out machine has only been positive in my experience. Hope this helps

Sorry, missed that when you first posted it. Just caught it as I was re-reading the thread.

It's a 56hp eos, front steer. great for site clearance with heavy flail on linkage and timber grab on loader. Or splitter on linkage and bucket on loader around the yard. I would like a bigger hp one but they get to heavy for us to move our selves. Tractor, flail, loader and grab is around 2.3 ton.

Loader is great. In my experience I've had no problems at all running a loader on front steer alpine :-)
