2520 LOADER PROJECT

[cantbeatadeere]

It's been almost a year since I purchased a 620 loader to install on my 2520. I wanted a QUICK attach loader - with a QUICK attach bucket. well I got the "620" loader frames mounted on the tractor last year and was to afraid to lift anything as I felt the frame would break on the tractor with such little support. the support of the loader frames that belong on that tractor "148" loader frames are much beefier. My father made a template of how he thought it should be and I took everything to a fab shop and had them make the pieces, mock them up on the tractor, make, blast and paint them...after all that I brought them home yesterday, installed everything on the tractor and it fits and works MINT...?

For continuity, wish you would have added this to the thread you had already going.. makes more sense to know what led up to your new fab. Looks good and more substantial.
Here is a link to your thread leading up to this install.
