I'd suggest trying a "wanted" in Craigslist, but also put in a sticky in eBay to let you know if one comes up for auction (don't see one there now, but have seen them in the past). Just note that there is an old JD loader also model 45 (50+ years ago).

that's a hard find standalone,
if you find one, you will want to
make sure you get all the proper
hydraulic relief valves for the transmission
etc.
you may find it easier to find a tractor with
the loader, and just trade yours for it,
which model X do you have?

I found the 40 loader for my 455 by posting a "wanted" ad at weekendfreedommachines.com.
As the previous poster mentioned, whatever you end up finding, make sure it comes with the loader-specific relief valve and control rod - typically you'd swap these out with the non-loader versions currenly on your tractor. The valve is quite expensive to buy separately, and without it you'll blow your transaxle in short order.
