In building my own loader, I'm starting to think about my options for a quick attach system for the bucket.

That thread can be found here

Does anybody recommend one system over another?

Also if anybody has some photo's that would be great as well.

BTW I looked at using a standard skidsteer plate, but the bucket is not quite wide enough.

Cheers

Take a look at how JD does it...just two hooks on top and two pins on the bottom. Very light and very easy to use. You can see some pictures in some of my recent threads (like on Forks and Grapples) if you search my username.

You can weld a skid loader atachment plate to a standard loader bucket.

I like Kennyd's idea, and you can make it even simpler by making the top the same way they do on skid loader buckets

Yeah, it sure is a simple approach.

I must admit I would have thought the single pin at the bottom would not have been good enough, but if it's working in real life, then it's good enough for me.
