Amazing how that happens!:thumbsup: You find stuff the last place you used it - just remembering where that was can make the head spin.:confused2:That's exactly where it was. I found it but now it gives me a card error.
I posted the wrong length of the bucket. It's past 2 feet it's more like 32 inches so a bit bigger than 2 feet.
I forgot to mention that the loader arms were still attached to it. So I may be able to utilize the already made loader arms on my loader. "But just shorten the width of them down a bit".
I would have kept the bucket for the loader but also noticed a bend at the bottom in the middle.
So decided to salvage it for a new bucket for the backhoe.

Your description of that loader reminds me of the ones I remember from the forty's. They had forks on the cutting edge for loading up manure piles for spreading in the fields and they were typically narrower than the tractor. How old do you think yours could be? If it can be adapted to your purpose, so much the better.:thumbsup:
