Deere 3020 w original loader need a skidsteer adapter

[rgood]

Hi, I know a similar question has been asked.... However, my tractor is older so I'm inquiring. I have a John Deere 3020 w an original JD Loader attached. My bucket is shot.... I happen to have a skidsteer bucket in excellent shape so I'm looking to purchase an adapter. I don't know what the "style" of attachment the John Deere Loader has I figure someone knows this off the top of their head. I checked with the JD dealer and they were not very helpful. Please point me in the right direction. Thank you! If you need a picture, let me know I'll get one.

If you have the JD 3020 with 148 loader, its a pin-on bucket - you need the QA conversion plate with ears to pin your bucket cylinders onto. There are a number of after-market adapters.

But if the back of your bucket - pins and plate are OK cut the bucket off weld on a $150-200 QA plate would be the least expensive route, https://www.amazon.com/Titan-Attachments-Universal-Loader-Bucket/dp/B00PR2W482?th=1

Most of the 3020's I have seen around here have either a 48 or a 148 Deere loader. The difference is - the 48 has one hydraulic cylinder and the 148 has 2 hydraulic cylinders.

I don't know which one myself, but you may want to ask these guys. I've bought a few adapters here for my 410 loader, at very good (IMHO) prices.

I think with some manufacturing this adapter could be utilized on a 148 FEL.

Finding the right adapter for older equipment can be a pain. It’s essential to identify the loader’s attachment style first. I know that titan attachments often has adapters for various models, and they've been helpful for many users. You can check their site if you are still in search.

What are the dimensions on your loader arms? I took a SSQA off my my Massey and converted to Global.
I thought I'd keep it but also consider to sell.
