Boomerboy;
Wow.....Nice job. That's real similar to what I had in mind. I hadn't thought of setting it up like that. I was thinking more of using the lower connecting points on the 3ph as the lower hinge, and adding a hydrolic top like mounted at the top rear side to controll the bucket roll. Did you make the arm sockets or did you buy them, they look real good. It must be a handy implement.

Kenneyz,
Yes, I made each of the arm sockets from two pieces of angle iron. They were made "in plce" to be sure of a good fit, but one that could be slid on and off easily. I was somewhat leary of just using the lower arms as the complete support for the scoop, but it has proven itself to be an excellant choice. This also left the top link bracket on the tractor free for the Spot Sprayer Tank frame I built.
Good luck to you and happy tractorin' /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif
