Iam looking to add a quick attach conversion to my model 75 loader on my Deere 850 tractor.
Was wondering if anyone has done this and what I might want to watch out for. Was considering purchasing
A weld on unit from one of the Chinese manufacturers or are these junk? A Pin on unit made specifically for my loader is just way to expensive.. your thoughts?

I've bought brackets for my 420 loader, to attach a few things, from these guys. Good stuff, made in USA (I think). I didn't search for your specific loader though...

I found a kit from J.D. with it's own part number for this conversion. Works great on my 80 loader, even the level indicator. I bought a new bucket, forks, a hay spear, tree puller, a grapple, and extra plates from Amazon to make a snow plow mount and a front loader mounted hydraulic PHD that only uses 1 loader arm.
I only had to narrow the curl cylinder collars by a mm to make it work. A grinding wheel and 5 minutes was all it took.

By far, forks are the most used, even for trenching ! I'm not even sure where my new bucket is right now !

Do you have the JD quick attach on yours and want to convert to skid steer quick attach? If so they make plates for that. If not you’ll have to get a pin on plate.

I've converted half a dozen or so different loader to SSQA, including one big (75 HP) John Deere. Don't recall the model. Do you have links to the parts you're talking about?
