My L4400 has a skid steer compatible quick attach feature on the FEL. I'm interested in locating a small bucket (48-52 inches wide) that I can use to offload a utility trailer that I use for mulch, stone, loam, gravel, etc.
I assumed that my best bet was to find a used skid steer bucket since they are generally smaller. Either that or buy a wider used bucket and get a welder to take a foot off each side and then reweld the side plates back on.
All comments are welcome. Where would you look for this? Does anybody make a 50 inch wide skid steer bucket? Any other ideas?
Thanks,

I have a small trailer I used for small loads and what I did was use my fel connected to the front of the trailer and dumped it on the ground.

Thanks, Magicheater. That's perfect and a good price, too.

Sylwoody,
It's a pretty good sized trailer. When it's loaded with something heavy like loam or gravel, I'm sure my loader would struggle with tipping it that high.
