On my B3200, one of the screw holes in the loader lever block that the loader lever attaches to is stripped out. I'm rethread the hole a couple of times and used locktite, but it keeps coming loose. How difficult is it to replace the loader lever block?

Drill it out and install a Heli-Coil or E-Z Lok threaded insert and save yourself a few hundred dollars.

Can you upload a picture so we can see specifically what and where this is located - someone might have an easy solution.

I was just retorquing my loader screws when I also noticed one was stripped before I took delivery. The dealer (or whoever else prepared the tractor for delivery) put an extra nut on the screw and it seems to work and hold well.

One of the screws around the spool where teh base blatw bolts up?? Drill oversize and retap to a larger size or install a thread repair insert.
