WD-45 loader and Belt Pulley?

I have a WD45 that I've been using for 2 years now to clear snow. I'd really like to add a loader to the tractor if I can find one. There is a Superior loader for sale locally that I could get, but it looks like the one of loader brackets might interfere with the belt pulley. So my main question is has anyone put a loader on a WD45 without removing the belt pulley. Superior or other? If so which loader? It looks like the original #9 loaders would work around the pulley, but again, I'm not sure.

I'm not really wanting to remove the pulley because it's a little more involved than I want to get. I also kind of like it. I think it gives the old girl character. Any replies are appreciated.
 
To remove the pulley is as easy as taking out the start. Simply remove the loosen the lock nut then remove the lock bolt pull the pulley assembly of and your done other then needed the cover plate which can be a bit fun to find but easy to do. BTDT when I installed a belt pulley on my W Speed Patrol just to have it there
 
Removing the pulley from the shaft will gain you a little clearance but I don't know if it would be enuf.
 
If you do remove the whole belt pulley, drive the right rear tire up on a timber to tilt the tractor to the left and you won"t loose any hydraulic oil.
 
I have a Du-All 350 loader on my WD-45D. It will easly lift a 1500# round bale and the hi-lift will reach 12'. There is room for the belt pulley as well. Good loader for the tractor. PK

Thanks for all the opinions. I thought the pulley would be much more complicated to remove. Sounds like I just need to get the loader and then see how everything sets up. Does anyone have experience with old Superior loaders on WD45? Any better or worse than the original factory loaders? Also does anyone know if you can still by the cap for the belt pulley opening from AGCO dealers?
