Time to pick a loader...

Well I figure it's about time to figure out which loader I'm going to use around the homestead... I mostly use it for lifting stuff and moving it around more than anything Like moving my snowplow without throwing out my back, etc.
I don't have piles of manure or dirt to move around, so it's more of a back-saver device.
I've got the Henderson two-armed loader with the trip-bucket on the Super A now, and I've got the IH-1000 single-arm with the hydraulic bucket sitting on a pallet waiting to get into some action...
So which one has more capacity to lift? I like the bigger bucket on the IH and the hydraulic bucket instead of the trip, but is the single arm weaker than the double arm?
