There are 3 threaded holes on the left side of the loader frame. Does anyone know what these are for? Or the size of the bolts to fit the holes... (Gotta be metric) I'd like to put a box for a chain and tools on the side there, is there any reason not to?

Edit...it's 10mm but not the thread pitch I brought home from the store today...

My thinking is that the left side mount is a reverse image of the right side mount. The hole thread size should be
M12 X 25.

No reason NOT to make a bracket to hold a tool box.

On the right side they are used to hold the bucket when they ship from the factory (different machine, same concept):

Did you mean M12-1.25mm.? The 1.25mm being the tread pitch

That's a good observation, Z5.

I was going by what the parts image shows.
I would think its M12, as in diameter of bolt and 25(mm), as in length of bolt.

The parts breakdown does not give details on the thread pitch.
