D-250 Factory Loader and Three Point Sleeve Hitch Adapter

[stratostar250 928]

Hey all, so, I figured I'd do something interesting for my 100th post.   I figured I'd show you guys a few pics of the factory loader on my D-250, and the new three point sleeve hitch adapter I got. 

Not really sure if I'll ever do much ground work with her, but it will be nice to know that I could pull my plow, disc, or trailer around if I need to. 

 

If you click on the pics, they get much larger, enjoy the detail

 

Here is just a pic of me fooling with it in the dirt.

 

Here is a pic of the loader bucket front on.  I really should clean and paint it.

 

Here are two pictures of the size of the tractor compared to a Jeep Cherokee

 

Here is a pic of the loader at full height with my dad. hahaha

 

Here is a pic of the category 0 three point sleeve hitch adapter I just got from Ballard Fabrication.  Search for their site, they make a lot of three point accessories. 

 

Aaaand, Here is a video of it! I need either a longer top link, or to lower the arms, because the disc barely reaches the ground

 

Hope you all enjoy!

Ballard does have nice stuff. Maybe a little big for your hitch? You get Cat O or 1 for that?  AND, didn't see the YOU in first picture like you stated! Ha!

It is a category 0, which is what I believe the hitch on the back of the d-250's are considered.  It may be a little big, but it fit right on without any troubles, and I don't plan on doing any really heavy work with it if I do.

And I guess I'm not quick enough to take a pic off the tractor while doing work.   hahaha
