Here are some overall pictures of the 145 loader on the 2510. I felt the 148 loader was big for this tractor so I went with the 145. I think a 146 might have been a little better but this is what I found locally.
As I recall I had to re-drill some of the holes in the mounting bracket to get the torque tube to clear the front nose the way I wanted it to. It has been some time, I cannot recall if the standard holes in the bracket caused the torque tube to interfere with the front nose, was too far away, or I was just being picky.
I did very little bucket work with this loader so I cannot comment on the ability to go below ground level when the bucket is flat. Thinking about it I don't think there is a problem. The pins at the arm ends come within a couple inches of the ground and of course the bucket pin holes are a couple inches off the ground when flat.
I use this setup for round bales. It works great, but when staking three I had always wished I had a little more height although I made it work. I think the 146 would have helped that, and the 148 would certainly help that.
I originally put this loader on a 2520, just mounted to the frame rails. I felt this was putting a lot of stress on those frame rails. I also read other posts at the time that made the same comment and recommended a connection to the rear axle and a cross brace underneath. I did this and what a difference it made. It just felt like the loader was so much more rigidly mounted to the tractor. Especially when traveling over rough ground with a round bale you could tell the rear axle was participating in handling the torque being applied to the tractor.
These picture will be the best looking pictures because they were taken just after we restored this 2510 and painted both it and the loader. I will post more close up pictures.

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: Winterizing Engines - To Drain or Not to Drain? - by Russ Berry. What is this strange attraction I have to equipment and machinery? How did I get this way? I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
