Backhoe BH76 Bucket Dimensions

[Branson Bob]

Here is a primitive dimensional drawings showing my Branson/Ansung BH76 bucket.

Aquamoose, were you ever able to confirm that the BH76 on the Kubota is the same as the one on the Branson?

I want to buy a 6" trenching bucket and want to make sure I'm buying one that fits.

Thanks!

p.s. - If the drawing isn't clear the distance between pins (centers) is 5.5", the pin diameter is 1", and the dipper width is 4.375"

Well, I'm sorry to report that I cannot find anyone other than my Branson dealer who can sell me a narrow trenching backhoe bucket for my Ansung BH76 backhoe which comes standard on many Branson tractors. I spoke with people at Titan Attachments and also at BXpanded and their buckets have different dimensions. It's not a huge issue but it would be nice to have more than one option.

Bottom line, backhoe buckets are generally not standardized... unlike FEL buckets.

Following with interest - I'd love to get a claw for mine and attachment issues are similar.

I have a 12" bucket and while occasionally I could use a 6" I recall reading or measuring that you'll hit the backhoe frame/pins if you try to dig deep with a 6", though it would also be useful during dry times digging in hard stuff that the 12 has trouble with.
