Hi all,
I have a B21 with a TL421 front loader. It seems that there is a lot more play in the front bucket recently. I can now "wiggle" the bucket front to back. I guess the wiggle is about 1". Are there bushings that need to be replaced that will take care of this?

Brackets and pins. If you wanted to, I suppose you could make bushings for the brackets but all in all the brackets are pretty cheap and can be bought new. As can the pins --- so inspect to figure out which is worn and buy replacements. I bought my parts from www.tractorsmart.com. I'm not connected to them in any manner --- just like the prices and the service. If you need it, you can get a pdf parts manual at no charge from their website.

Are the brackets and pins universal for the loader?

IE:
Are they the same replacement part for each point on the loader?
I've also got wiggle and several of the bushings don't take grease.

I would doubt it --- get the Parts Manual for your application. That will give you the part numbers for your specific loader. Parts manuals don't cost a dime --- no reason not to have one.
