backhoe buckets

[biggziff]

Are backhoe buckets generally the same fit? For example, will a 12" bucket from a Kubota or other smaller hoe (my Kioti has a 7.5' hoe) fit a Kioti? I need a 12" bucket and there are a few used ones near me, but they're not Kioti brand. I assume someone builds these backhoes for Kioti.

I would check all the attachment dimensions to determine if one would fit.
Pin diameter & Ear spacing would be the first things to check.

I am looking for a used 18" quick attach bucket for my Kubota L48 hoe.
I doubt that I will ever find one.

There are 18" buckets for sale on:
Pintrest
Ebay
ironplanet
machinery trader
and I'm sure there are more and some are Kubota brand. But, not all are made by Kubota. Other mfgs. will fit also, just need the geometry info - pin size, ear spacing, etc.

so.....are you saying Kubota will fit? Not sure what you're trying to convey here.

No, I'm saying you don't need a Kioti bucket and one from another manufacturer will work as long as the pin size and spacing are the same as your hoe, and that there are many places to find the buckets other than the tractor dealer.

Short answer is that no most buckets will not fit a kioti backhoe the pin and hole spacing are different, I had to get mine from a dealer, most small hoe buckets are not standard.

Most people with used buckets want $500 for worn out junk. I gave up and bought a new bucket for mine.
