I am in the process of getting a new to me Kubota L5030. Trouble is, it has a light materials bucket on the 853 loader. I've spoken with my dealer who has confirmed that the tradeup to the HD bucket from the light materials bucket is $400. He also mentioned that with the quik tatch, I should consider getting a 72" Bobcat bucket since they are a few bucks cheaper (a total of $35 - whoo hooo /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif), but also have more capacity with the same basic strength. What are you guys' thoughts? Any drawbacks to this approach outside of the fact that I may just have to paint it orange? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
