Are you sure you bent the stand while installing or removing the loader? I noticed once when I had my 2520, My father was driving it and kept bumping the stand on the back of my trailer while unloading mulch. It had a few small dents, but glady he did not bend it. I'm sure it could be braced some if you have any welding skills. JC

I just remembered several years ago, my father hit a hole and bent the drag link on our old JD650. I started searching the internet looking for a replacement. Went back out and he had the part off and was heating it with a torch, A few hammer whacks and then some paint, and it was fixed.

Lets us know what you came up with.
Father-in-law and myself was thinking a piece under where the factory welds are now bent with a slight angle to give that upward lift needed out towards the front of tractor.
Since they are using tubing I guess it could be a size larger and a little heavier gauge tubing maybe sliced down the middle and then put on the lower side of factory tubing. We were thinking maybe 12-15" long . If not tubing a 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" angle iron .Then weld and bend according to your stand as to how much your is broken or bent .
