Hi, my brother has IH 495D with the 2250 quick attach loader and IH 684D. The IH 584D is the size in between these two tractors. They have the German Diesel engines that run forever with litte maintance. The 2250 quick attach loader is a heavy loader and will cause problems on the front axles. Although 2250 fits on 2WD models is more suited for 4WD models with the heavier front axles.
Check front axle for cracks where the power steering cylinder connects to axle and also around where the bolts go thru the box frame to hold the cast part that connects to the spindles.
IE the bolts that would be removed to adjust the width of the front axle. The 2250 loader protrudes over the front of the tractor quite a bit so if you are using it to move heavy objects, either put some weights on the back of the tractor or some 3 pt implement like a cultivator or plow.

Also if you are allowed to test drive, check the parking brake for holding. If it won't hold that means someone drove the tractor with the parking brake on and the brake lining is all chewed up floating aroung in the transmission plus hydraulic system. Not good, will eventually clog hydraulics.

Bottom line, good tractor and loader.
