I own a swinger 160, love it, never tried a wilmar.

We have an old loader with Dana 60 diff., spider gears stripped twice in 30 years service. not bad I would say. We currently have a Willmar and really like it. I am sure we will invest far more money in the hydraulic system than the old one in 30 years. At least with the swinger you only have one hyd. motor. As with any new machine, dealer and service can be the deal maker.

Personally I like swingers. I have been around the 2000 and 240. I like them both, With a good operator they are fast and productive. They are some what high maintenance though. Allot of power for a little machine. I prefer the 2000 because of the 2 speed transfer case.
