I'll bet it isn't really uncommon, although I didn't have to with my new one.
Is it normal to have to grind a little off the loader to sit correct? When I went to put it in it hits where the pump and intake meet and holds the back two mounting holes off the intake by about a 1/16.

Sounds like whoever made your loader was a poor fabricator. I'd talk to the shop that you bought it from before you start grinding on it.
I had to grind one about 1/8" when I put it on the Dominator intake.
I had the same problem with my loader for my Dominator. I think that most of the loaders are made for Berkeleys an Dominators are slightly different. I didn't have that problem with my Berkeley that I have now. Juat my opinion.
I had to grind mine a little here and there. It was mostly sloppy weld chunks that were on the edge of the plate that needed to be removed. My holes were smaller than the stock rock, so I had to drill them larger so I could match the holes.
I had the same problem ground down about 1/16 to make it fit. Also used black nail polish where I ground It looks like I never did anything at all :idea:

Thanks people, I had to grind to little spots and she went in.
Not sure on that loader Snake.
