Find a good spot for it. I cleared an area that had easy access. As Bob said sink some solid posts into the ground that are wide enough to drive the tractor and loader through with a cross brace on top that is strong enough to support the back of the loader. It should be at least 3 feet higher than the highest point of the loader. Once you have this done drive the tractor through the opening. I would remove the bucket first. I put a jack under the bottom front (under the pump area). If you can, disconnect the pump from the shaft that goes to the crank shaft. Next take off your fenders (if they are mounted above the back support of the loader connected to your axle trumpets). Disconnect the 3 to 4 bolts that attach the front of the loader to the front of your tractor. You can use the jack to raise or lower the front of the loader (to ease the bolts out) and as the weight comes off the front of the tractor will rise up. Next, with the fenders off, set up some chains and come-a-longs from the back of the loader to your overhead brace...remember to leave room for the tractor and yourself to back out. Once the back of the loader is supported, disconnect the back of the loader from the axle trumpets and raise it high enough using the come-a-longs. Once the back is secured I blocked the front of the loader and removed the jack to make it secure as well. Then back out slowly and carefully and put the fenders back on. My shaft for my Vickers pump unscrewed from the crank pulley CLOCKWISE (Thank you Hobo!) Then I lowered the loader onto blocks.

When you"re done it looks like this.

Good luck.
