I'm looking for a loader for my l3600. It doesn't need to be a new one.... Any ideas or thoughts of where to look????? What all loaders will fit? Thanks

Check local dealers. Sometimes they get used ones on trade ins. That's how I got mine.

I had been checking by a dealer every so often and one day when I stopped, he had just got a used one in. It was the one made for my L3600, Model LA680 loader, and it looked like new. Seems like I saved a couple K compared to the cost of a new one.

Thanks for your help I found a lb552 loader @ Rosy Bros in MI. They have 2 new ones left @ $3850.00 each

Stihl sawing,
The lb552 loader is for a L4300.
It's too big for a L3600.
You are probably going to have to have custom made mounts in order to fit.

Yes you are right.
There are two bolt holes that dont line up but I can easily make a small adapter plate on each side. So beware if anyone else wants to go this route.

Well I'm glad to hear that it was that close and an easy fix, some are way off.

Being that it's a larger / stronger loader just don't overdue it, it has the capacity to lift more than the tractor really wants to do, but it's not so much that it's out of the safe range.
