We just bought a Ford 1500 compact 4WD diesel tractor with a Ford 770 front loader. We need to replace the clutch (single clutch, fortunately), and think the best way is to remove the front loader bucket and arms.

I have not found any information on-line regarding how to do this. Anyone have any sources they could share, or at least advice on what not to do?

That loader is not a quick release loader. You will need some sort of over head hoist. Then remove the bolts that hold it on. Disconnect you hyd. line the drag the tractor back wards. ....

I had one on my old 1700. It was a PITA to take off/on, but can be done in about an hour. I nudged the edge of the bucket against a strudy tree that I had a strong rope with a loop tied around it about 8' up. I put the hooks of a chain into the top edge of the loader arm, then hooked a comealong to the chain and the loop around the tree. Unbolted everything, hoisted the loader up off it's bases, backed the tractor clear, then lowered the loader arms onto cinder blocks. Not exactly QD, but it works. ....
