8-9’ high volume bucket

[Hay Dude]

Looking for a 8’ extra high volume bucket. Hoping for low to mid 40’s cubic feet of capacity. Euro quick-attach.

Dealers have 8’ 36 cu ft and 9’ 51 cu ft in stock. Resisting 9’ wide because of loader arm stress and width going down the road.

Can’t find any of the extra tall/deep extra high volume models in 8’ wide.

Tried HLA, Kivel & ATI.

Any suggestions? Need in a few weeks, so I’m too late to get one built.

imagine you'll be using it on your larger M series...what is the reason & application for that sized bucket? how much of the bucket will extend beyond the ft wheel's width? having that wide a bucket will require constant attention not to snag trees, fence posts, etc. guess you've already figured that out. good luck finding one & report back. maybe a pic once installed.
also you've prob realized that by extending the bucket edge length will reduce it's digging capacity

on the other side of the coin, for the above reason, i purposely went with a 6' on my rig rather than std 7'. with a hd toothbar, it works great for minor excavation & loading. regards

We have one. It's a big one, not sure about the exact size. We use it for manure and shavings. Just any bulky things. Never use for dirt, I don't want to tear it up. I have to build another one for another farmer. Probably take two evenings. Hopefully I can just add on to another bucket.

I can get a 108” bucket and be done with it, but really don’t want that wide. Would rather be deep & tall 96”.

No it’s going on the Challenger. The Kubota M series already has one, but it’s being sold.
Challenger is Euro Quick attach.

It will be used to scoop mushroom compost, wood chips or snow.
Light bulky materials.

This is what I’m looking for, but Euro QA not SSQA

Can you get one of those and just weld the Euro brackets? Would that be worth it? If you can't find anything in a timely fashion that is.

Anyway, looks like the previous owners decided it was a good idea to push something heavy with the quick attach and manage to bend it in the middle. I wonder what goes on people's brain sometimes...

I'd say this one is 3' tall, 4' plus a grader blade on bottom, 8' wide. I'm thinking this other one I'm gonna make, he has the idea to just bolt it on his existing bucket and take off when done with the clean out. It's four poultry houses and a once a year clean out. But it will drag on from end of this month to February. My dad had four houses too, but all his left at one time. We jumped on the clean out and if all went well, parents could get a vacation from the 7 day a week grind. Usually they only went to visit my sister's family several hours away. But things like this time saving pooper scooper bucket helped make it all possible.

Bought my landscape model M59 used with a long bottom, deep GP 5’ wide bucket. Used for materials like you said. Probably close to the factory 7’ wide capacity wise. Using have learned to really appreciate it over common buckets. Great for in the woods. Added a piranha toothbar and really a good digger. No brand on it.

That mushroom compost gets heavy when wet.
