Opinions on Hough H50C Payloader

Post by Tigerhaze » Wed Oct 13, 2010 10:39 am

Good morning-

I have been looking at a Hough H50C Payloader (wheel loader) in my area, and very little information appears to be online based on my searches. The one I am looking at has the IH D262 engine. I have also checked out the RedPower website and may ask on there as well.

I am looking for opinions on these wheel loaders, specifically:

-Reliability issues with this model or any weak links
-Strengths or good features of this model
-Availability of parts
-Any websites specializing in Hough payloaders (other than RedPower)

Thank you

I think that is the same one I had, but in a gas. Heavy as hell, don't float worth a damn, but on hard surface should be fine. I think parts availability is poor, I know that is what I found. The main thing that always worried me is those two big arms going past my little arms as you sit in the seat.
