Okay guys,
I know I'm not the only one that is tired of listening to my loader mounting lynch pins rattle when working with my tractor!
What have any of you done to quiet this annoying rattle?

What rattle? Maybe that's one of the differences between the 1500 and 2500 series machines. LOL

No rattle on the 4035 (35 series) ML120 loader pins either.

Pull the pin, put a squirt of high pressure grease in the hole, reinstall the pin. The grease will be sticky and thick enough the pin won't rattle. As long as you don't overdo it, there won't be a mess.

I like to go for the cheap fix that requires no modifications first...

I vote weld them but I do a lot of welding :)

I would reckon you don't remove your loader much... :D

I've notice the pins rattle on mine but a move of the loader = quiet. Weld? Great idea, but no.

When you're a hammer the world looks like a nail!!

Never, lol. If I take it off I'll have to put it back on, that's the whole point in having a tractor with a loader on it I thought? If I don't need a loader then I need another tractor without a loader :)

zip ties go a long ways with that model

My 1540 Massey Isike does the same

I use these tarp tie-down bungees for the pin rattle (and a bunch of other tasks around the house) - they're like $5 per 25 at Home Depot.
