CM, he just wants to change the bucket not the loader. I did the same but put a bigger bucket w/toothbar on it. I move a lot of dirt and gravel and the big bucket saves me 1/3 in time and trips.
I know it's marketing, but good grief, just bore them all out to 50hp....that would be cheaper in the long run for Kioti. Less machinery, fewer parts, fewer brochures, etc. I bet they could cut the price of the 50 by $3-4K if they only made one model.[/QUOTE
You're absolutely right! On both counts, and I like the idea of the 50HP at a more reasonable price- heck I would have taken one myself if the price was right!:thumbsup: I meant to say bucket- duh:laughing:
So what bucket did you replace the factory bucket with? Show pics, give link, and $.

:licking:
Thanks. And what do you do to move so much dirt/gravel?
