I figure if I can design it to switch between the loader in a 1/2 hour, or hour that would fine - Is this reasonable?
You could take it off and on again but it would be a pain to do and it would get tired of doing it pretty fast. I had that thought when I got my 122 and Danco loader but even at 30 mins to change it out it got old fast. The later Kwik-Way loaders have a quick attach system but I have not seen of used one of those. PM me with your email address and I'll email it to you so you can see how they made their sub frames.

It takes more rear weight then what you'll think. I've got 818 lbs with me in the seat and it's still light in the rear. The Kwik-Way is rated for lifting 750 lbs where the Danco was 350 lbs and their manaul stated 250 lbs counter weight.
