I think you should broaden your search. Kubota loaders that fit your tractor are LB402 or LA450 - maybe a couple others. These loaders were current in the late '90s but finding one now is extremely hit-or-miss. And after-market loaders can be pretty spendy ($4k-$5k). It's often cheapest to buy a whole tractor with loader - and sell the one without it. Also a good opportunity to upgrade to 4wd. It might cost $3k-$4k or less to have 2 major upgrades in capability.

If you're not in a hurry good luck can happen. I watched eBay a long time and a new-in-the-crate LA450 came along for $1800. Story here. Good luck.

Bush Hog makes a loader that will fit it. It is a model 2045.

Westerdorf makes the TA-111 and TA-160. Also, maybe Koyker, Rhino, Ameriquip,
SMC, or Bradco. You can expect to pay $4K or so. If you can find a dealer that
gets regular shipments from a company that makes other implements, maybe
you won't have to pay full shipping.

There are many aftermarket loaders available which are equal to or better than Kubota and the price is comparable to what you expect to pay for a Kubota loader.

I just purchased 2000 kubota L3000DT, and am looking for loader, used or new. Looks like you move a few? jim

Another brand to consider is Buhler Allied. I added one to my previous tractor, a 1981 Kubota L275DT. It was a good loader. Photos attached:
