skid steer quick attach

[FTG-05]

It's just a head ache you don't need to deal with since you already know where the tractor is now and where you wanna go. Don't do it.

This. Plus I would be worried about what other features it doesn't have that are important.

Thanks. Not a buddy, but i know him. Cutting off the old tabs and welding the bracket on the back of the bucket isnt that big of a deal either. I have the cutting/welding equipment to do it. Just didnt know if there was some practical reason not to convert it or to buy a pinned bucket

Practical reasons for pin on bucket
#1 cost approx $1000 cheaper
#2 weight lift arms can lift extra steel or actual material in bucket
#3 additional money saved when you can't buy the shinny new ssqa attachment that will make life easier and tractor more useful

Not sure where you are at in the tractor purchase or the conversion to ssqa process. As of yet I have not converted mine, but continue the debate.
You indicated you have the equipment to cut the brackets off the bucket and mount them to brackets. So if the purchase is in your opinion worth what time and money you need to put into the project versus just buying ready to mount adapters, go for it. There are lots of threads here as well as youTube videos on doing just this.
Be sure to add in supports before you remove your bucket brackets for the pins or cut out the back of the bucket葉he positioning of spacing needs to be maintained. The bucket can be patched if you plan to put a plate on it to use with the ssqa.
Let us know your progress.
