1610 loader

[Grandpa's 8N]

I have a 1610 loader on a 1650. The lh main bracket that goes from the rear axle forward to the side rail is bent upwards. Bought the loader used and everything looked okay, but it wasn"t on a tractor. Any suggestions as how to pull it down to get the bucket level. The bucket is off 2 plus inches.

Sometimes you can heat the bend with a rosebud and
use a come a long to pull it back where you want
it.
