The loader on my M59 is out of alignment. Apparently the quick attach released on one side with a full bucket torqueing the frame. Any ideas on how to determine what is bent or torqued/bent and who might repair?

Did you get the bucket off to see what's bent. Even if it came off one side the backplate should have kept the loader arms straight.

This is one of the reasons I don't like SSQA's. The skid steer we had at the quarry gave lots of trouble doing the same thing after it got some wear on it.

A picture would be best.
Set the bucket on the ground with the loader disconnected drive just up to it so there is a way to judge how much it's bent.
Are the latch plates just out of alignment?
