Is a Global Connection available for the 542 SL Loader ?

My buddy just bought a gently used 5325 542 SL with the 500 Quik Tach Pin Connection & wants Global like his 5085M H260 has.

I can't find any info on the JD sites ....

Any help or links ?

We don't like adaptors moving implements out further away from the tractor but that's probably his only option.

I would sell the 542 loader and buy the 563 loader with the global carrier. Easiest in the long run.

Z5, I agree. I love my 563.

He'd have to change tractor mounts too.

My H260 & 563 are interchangeable but NOT the 541/542

Check out HLA attachments. They sell global adaptors for the loader.

My other buddy has a Hi Vol HLA Bucket.
I like the inside back being rounded just like the OEM JD buckets :D
