I would put the angle on the front of the bucket. Reason being, when the chain, or wire rope choker wraps over the heel of the angle less chance on bending it. If the toe of the angle iron is out front it will bend in time. I think I'd run the angle iron out all the way to the edge of the bucket.
OK, that makes sense. I started thinking about the D ring too. If I put the angle on the front, I could weld the D ring to the front vertical section of the angle in the center of the bucket so I could use that for rope or S hook straps.
