Surf You Tube. One of the guys shows how to make one for his Kubota. You may get some ideas.

Here are some pictures of what I I’d. Don’t recall the sizes, but got the tubing,rod and flat stock at tractor supply. Drilled the holes in the brackets,bent them in a vise with the help of a propane torch and the rod and tube were put into the bracket holes and tack welded. After marking the rod with the bucket level, I ground a groove and painted white so the paint wouldn’t wear off. all of the holes on the loader were already there. I made a plastic bushing for the upper hole to match the bolt size. Also want to use nyloc nuts so you can leave the brackets a little loose so they rotate.

This I what I did on my 3616. Drilled and tapped the pins to 5/16 thread and used 3/8 shoulder bolts.

That was what I’m looking for! Thanks! If you get a chance can you measure that rod and tube? thanks again!

I don’t see where the plastic bushing goes?
