Would an IH 2050 loader fit a Farmall 560?

Looks like someone converted it to be a single cylinder dump by welding a cross brace across the top. The 2050 is stamped, after it a U9111 is printed.

I haven't found too much information about these loaders, other than they are intended for "low profile" -4 series tractors.
 
I don't have any specifications on the 2050 loader either, but don't think your going to have much height of lift, hate to see you disapointed after getting it mounted.
 
Our 2050 series A is on a 574 I think you will have trouble with the clearance by the top front of the radiator unless you mount it forward more. Ours just clears by a few inches as it goes up and down. You might have to extend the tube arms that go back to the rear axle, also as your tractor is a good bit longer than a 574.
 
Doesn't sound like a good idea. There are some larger, more expensive loaders around me, but I am not too sure the Farmall 560 frame rails were designed with the idea of hanging a big loader in the middle of them.

Especially since the IH 2000 seems to be pretty much designed with its own frame that reaches both ends of the tractor.

My problem is the closest IH 2000 loader is 500 miles from here. (Northeast Texas.)
 
Have you ever heard of a Westindorf Loader,there made in Onawa Iowa, easy on and easy off, A WL-42,, would be perfect for a 560. And the best quick change bucket in the business,my opinon only, not connected to the company in any way.
 
New or used? Used, I have the same problem of availability (almost none for sale around here), plus they are relatively expensive and rarely (never) have the right mount hardware. For one aftermarket loader I looked at (not Westendorf), the mounting hardware was going to be $2000 by itself and would require modification to sort of fit the 560.

And putting a new aftermarket loader on a 560 just doesn't seem to make any sense. The amount I would be spending would put me in the range where even a brand new tractor starts to compare well, and just getting a different tractor with a loader becomes a no brainer.
