9 inch bucket for BX-24

[FishAlaska]

Looking for a 9" bucket....anyone want to sell or know where to get? I understand they are not available anymore.

Honestly, I have no idea where to get other sizes, but one person you might want to try to turn to on TBN - bxpanded. He seems to design good stuff and looks like a good welder. Perhaps you could ask him. Another idea would ask brotek to design one for you. I beleive they build stuff with cad drawings and they designed the ripper for the BX24. Using the design from ripper , it shouldnt be hard to use that to transfer drawing and make a new bucket.

Also if I recall correctly, there was a person (cant rememeber who) bought a bigger, used bucket for his backhoe and he welded on new ears to fit his backhoe. If you can weld, maybe this would be an option for you.

I've seen aftermarket buckets over the net. Possibly Northern tool? Not sure on the compatability. Kioti is a spin off of Kubota any chance they would have something that would work?

They were once produced.....when I bought mine I had the option. Now I can't find the smaller one anywhere.

It never fails I just sold mine on ebay that I had left over when i sold the bx24 it sold for about $200. I think if you contact your dealer you can still order one? if not several people on ebay are selling buckets or just weld one up.

When I boight my BX23.
You could get 10 12 & 16 inch BH buckets.
Mine had the 10 incher.
Just stuck with it and it's worked out fine.

Someone just sold one on eBay for $193.

Depending on your skills, you or someone you know could take a standard bucket and cut it down or add to it in an hour or two without too much trouble if you can find one the right price. If anyone is interested, I will go in on it if someone wants to share the cost of having some of the mounting plates laser or plasma cut. There are several projects I would like to do with the BH using different removable mounts

Addl note: I just read the response above ... it is probably the same guy

Mine is the same as LBROWNS.I chose the narrow one because i have real rocky ground.Its my opinion they get around and under the rocks and roots better.That being said if i had smaller rocks and less stumps etc id have the largest one for faster soil removal.
