How hard would if be to mount a 460 loader to a 175 or 185, looks like they were made for the 6000 series tractors???

Yes, the 460 loader was made for the 6000 series tractors. Will it mount on a 175/185? Anything can be made to fit with enough cutting, welding, modifying, and money. I highly doubt that it will bolt on. Never tried, but those are my 2 cents.

My 170 has a 460 loader on it that someone rigged up before I bought it. Looks like they spent a lot of time and a substantial amount of money to get it done, and still not connected to rear axles. Works well after all that.

A loader that size if used heavy will eventually break the tractor in two if it doesn't have rear axle connection. I've fixed two 185's and a 200 that had Koyker loaders on them. Broke in half right thru the belt pulley hole.

The bucket is quite far beyond the front of the tractor. This increases the 'moment' at the center of the tractor. Otherwise it looks like a nice install.

And when those tractors broke in half, it was a "momentous occasion".......
