Never seen that kind of cab modification before.  Or, a loader on a Two-Twenty FWA.

That is a good looking tractor even with cab and loader. Any idea where up in Canada?

Absolutely Mike. Way to many show up. There are several you know have been scrapped, several you will never know about. And they say there were only 100 made. I don't believe it. I have seen more 220 fwa then 4w220s. And there were only 175 of those made, 20 years later.

I like it, but I got a different question. Why is the cylinders installed with the rod end down? For speed or to lower the lift capacity to keep from destroying the loader? There is 3 at home and not one is like that. Just wondering
Allis Chalmers still exist in my mind and barns

My guess is because it has hard lines on the inside of the right side arm that run to the front, short hose from there to the cylinders.

Interesting theory.....Isn't that kind of like saying the meat is in the middle of the sandwich "because" the bread is on the outside?
 
Meaning, are the cylinders mounted that way "because" it's plumbed that way, or is it plumbed that way because the cylinders are mounted the way they are?
 
I think the original question of is it designed for a specific function is still valid.  Or are the loader builders in this case just not too smart?

It makes for a cleaner installation was my point, but your point is received and valid.  I should have taken more time to explain my perspective.   

Hard lines are easier to make a clean installation than rubber hoses, so they ran hard lines to the front of the right arm, and short hoses to connect to the cylinder, then crossed over to the left side and did the same thing there.  Probably also cheaper to run hard lines than rubber hoses, not positive on that though.  The alternative (flipping the cylinders) I believe would lead to additional materials (steel or rubber lines) being needed to get down to the connection at the bottom of the loader frame.  

I don't believe there is any performance gain or loss by doing it that way, maybe a slight bit because of the extra weight of the cylinder on that end rather than just the rod.  

And you put the meat in the middle of your sandwich?!?!Smile

Well, except for that KFC chicken breast health food thing once in a while!
 
It's all good.  I understand what you mean. 
 
To the guy who asked the question, it wouldn't reduce the lift force, as extending the cylinders still lifts the loader, it's just a question of which part of the cylinder moves.  I've seen both directions.

Nice to see another one in Canada. Had a trucker from Sask. stop for a tour in November and he used to own one when he farmed.  Three that I know of in Ontario including mine. All new here with one still with original owner. Have about 45 accounted for. Having just removed a LaPorte cab, there would have been a lot of work installing a 7000 cab. Would still be noisy!

also when it rains instead of having water pool up on top of the seal on the cylinder it will run off.

Darryl has the first 220FWA Serial# 2223 and highest 220FWA in the registry  is Oughtred's is serial #2433, a spread of 210 serial #'s.  So they were or were not  continuously built on the line?

Most loaders have the cylinders that way for removal. That way the cylinders stay with the loader. All the plumbing is on the boom and connects in one location typically on the right hand side. The performance would only differ in the weight of the rod vs the Barrell as stated above.

Gord still has his 220 fwd but hasn't had it running since the 2009 GOTO.
I saw 2442 in North Carolina. Looks like A-C made an initial run of 75 or so consecutive serial numbers and then as required after that.  I have 9 consecutive numbers in my registry
