Buying Advice BT601 Backhoe Bucket for Kubota BX24D

[bcavender]

Does anyone know of someone that makes a 6" bucket (or even smaller) for the BT601?

I have a 12" bucket now and would like to get down to 6 to cut my spoils/time down when I need to trench a 2" pipe (or less).

Any suggestions or ideas are welcome!!!

Have you thought about the ripper / trencher from Bro-Tek? Depending on the material, it may be difficult to fully empty a 6 inch wide bucket.

The trencher works pretty well on my BX25.

I searched out the Bro-Tek site and found the Ripper, but no Trencher. Also looked at Google Images, no luck there either.

This sounds even better of an idea than a 6" bucket. What does it look like/How does it work?

Maybe it has been discontinued. (I dropped them an email to find out.)

Thank you for your great suggestion!!! That might be just what the doc ordered.
