Azdak,

This totally depends on what you plan on using the loader for and like the other gentleman stated, if you need the 'power down' feature or not.

If you are just doing general purpose light loader work and want the ease of fast on/off attach, get one of these smaller "front end" loaders.

If you need lots of capacity and lots of muscle, that old Farmhand F-10 fills the bill and the 60 fitted with a wide front handles this old loader very well, indeed. Plus, they are everywhere and they are cheap.

The only trouble here is that the F-10 pretty much totally consumes your tractor; I.E. the tractor is "inside" the loader and consequently is good for little else except loader work.

So, the bottom line is your call...whadda gonna do with it?

The original loader for these tractors was a JD 45. They fit properly and are a good sturdy unit. The problem is finding on in decent condition. Normally they sell for $300-$500.
