Any such thing as a rear bucket? Not to the depth of a loader, but more to carry and dump things.

If you'll do a search for the words "dirt scoop" you will find many posts relating to your question and probably exactly what you describe. They have been around for at least 50 years and are available almost anywhere attachments are sold. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

So, they are called scoops. I got a small one with the tractor, but I am lloking for something a little larger than this one. Something to pile the manure from 2 horses into and dispose of. Just trying to avoid getting a tiny garden tractor trailer kind of thing. Plus anything else I can hook to the back is a plus to me!!

Thanks

Yes, there is a rear bucket that works like a loader. Check Westendorf. They make a hi lift attachment for it that will let your compact load over the side of a pickup as well. I thought it was pretty good. Westendorf

Wow Jim, that looks like a great REL! /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

I notice that they are designed for Cat 2 or 3 tractors. I wonder if anyone makes something like that for a Cat 1 tractor, and how much they go for?

What size scoop do you have? Your tractor will handle a 30", or if you are near a Tractor Supply Co., they have a 4'x8' trailer in a box with 12' wheels, rated for 1500 # for about $230. you put together and install your own floor.

They had them for Cat 1 at the Louisville show. I'll check at the Oklahoma show this weekend for more info.

Have you taken a look at CadPlans? They have a three point loader model 107 that might fit the bill. They also have a scoop on the same page. You can get a kit for either from Metkit.

And don't be fooled by the "new' designation- that page has been that way for a long time. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Ken,

Check out JohnnyBucket . I have one of his cat 0 buckets (actually, I think it's the first one he made). It looks like he is about to start making Cat 1 buckets, too.

That looks real nice. I sent an e-mail out of curiosity as to what else they may be offering.
Probably a little more than what I want to spend though.

Thanks
Ken H.
