My bucket sucks!

Let me rephrase:

Bucket for bucket, the Foundry bucket has more reinforcement for heavier duty use.

So this bucket " Worksite Pro # KV11636" requires additional mounting hardware?

I think the 300CX is built a bit heavier isn't it?

After revieiwng all the messages in this thread, I am gonna look at what it would cost to get one of those workforce buckets instead of the 61" or 73" materials buckets

Gotcha. I was reading your post literally rather than how you intended. Yeah, I don't use my bucket for tearing out old concrete and stuff like that. If I did, I foundry bucket would make more sense. I do gravel, rip rap and stuff like that at times without any issue. I have rip rap (is that what the stuff is really called?) around my lake and it's easier on my back to place it with my loader than by hand.

Nuru, if you have the 'quick attach' bucket on your loader it's nothing to change buckets and no mounting hardware would be needed. I can change between a spear, pallet forks, and my bucket in literally just a couple minutes each. If I had a way of seeing the front plates on the loader mount, I could likely do it faster.

On the 300Cx, the bucket comes off in seconds, just two pins and that is really it. So i think i am golden.
