L39 4n1 bucket

Whats a 'B21 project'?

He recently bought a Kubota B21 TLB that needs a little tender loving care to bring it back to good working order.

Wow, that is the smallest tractor I have seen a 4in1 mounted on.

Actually you can get a 4n1 for the PowerTrac 180 which is probably smaller yet. I think the confusion comes with assuming that people are putting skid steer weight 4n1s on. ATI, WRLong and maybe others manufacture quite light weight 4n1 buckets for CUTs. Some only weight 250lbs which is really only 100lbs or so more than the standard bucket. Of course those are not designed to stand up to the work that a skid steer would dish out but then again they are on small CUTs with loader capacities that are under 1000lbs so the buckets, used properly, will last just fine.

I have a 72" Construction attachments 4 in 1 on a L39. They are an excellent match. If your doing a lot of earth work they're great. If you are planning to use the clam shell as a grapple device often, I would get a grapple bucket instead. The opening is just too small on the 4 in 1.

Yes, I can see that the CA 4in1 does not work nearly as well at grabbing
objects, vs. a grapple bkt. This was especially the case in trying to
grab and pick up logs. The logs can easily be squeezed out of the bkt
by the closing action. This problem was alleviated by welding a tooth
on each side of the lower "jaw". The 4in1 I just acquired already
has these teeth....I can not tell if they were added or not.

Any chance of seeing this 4 in 1 bucket in action just to see how it works and what it can do?I have the Kubota B2630 model with the front end loader and backhoe.

I do not know if you are asking me or those other guys with working
4in1s. I do plan to get mine going, but my B21 is in many small pieces and
I am missing about 60 (mostly gears, bearings, and shafts). I should have
it going in a few months. Some of the parts I need will take a month to get
it seems.
