As these are farm tractors, all the loaders are aftermarket, and have varying degrees of lift. 1500Lbs is quite a bit, and most times, that will lift the rear wheels off the ground, if there is enough ram pressure to get it lifted. I've lifted a 40' long 5x10" steel I beam which was about 700 with no problems but the rear tires are going to lift. I put a barrel filled with water on my rear blade to counter weight. This is not convenient, and it's not what the tractor was designed for, so compromises are common.
A industrial tractor would be ideal, but my finding with all those in your price range is they are on their last gasp, and will need $$$$$$$ before it will do the job. I looked at some of the early industrials with a loader, and they all say 'needs valve job' or 'needs trans work' or something really pricey. If you look at the industrials, check everything out very well. The farm tractors with a loader is a compromise design but I make it work.
