ford 4500 – loader removal

shopteacher 1 ยท 2012-08-10 19:04

I have to replace the loader on my 4500. I can get everything off except the pins at the top of the loader. I have taken the bolts out of each end but the pins do not budge. Am I missing something?

    I figured it out - The pins that hold the loader on are tapered and were stuck. Moved up to 12lb sledge and they came out. Loosen the bolds on the inside of the loader about 4 turns and bang away until the budge. When I put them back, I coated them with anti-seize compound.
