Front-End Loader Use the quick attach bucket and hardware from a JD 2305 200x loader on a D120 loader?

Hey guys-

I'm a longtime reader, but a first time poster. Thanks for all of your help!

Can I swap the quick attach hardware and bucket from a 200x FEL (currently on a JD 2305) onto a D120 FEL (currently on a JD 1023e)?

Seems like a pretty simple swap, but I'm hoping you guys can confirm/deny.

Welcome to TBN gpabby,
it looks like the "holder" is interchangeable with the 200cx and the d120..
here is a pic of the part and the part numbers for 1 and 2 show compatibility
with several of the newer loaders.

Thanks, Dutch445! I've also noticed that the bucket on the 2305 (200x) seems to have a greater holding capacity in terms of volume than the 1023e (D120). Both buckets are 49":
1) Any idea why the newer buckets would hold less?
2) Would you have any concerns using the 2305 bucket on the 1023e (balance, weight, etc)?

the Pin on buckets are physically smaller, and i wouldn't worry about the quick tatch
bucket as i've never sold the pin on bucket and everybody seems happy with the
quick tatch buckets, 49 or 53 inch...
