BH90 Bucket upgrade?

TalonDancer · Nov 14, 2007

I started out with a mere 12" bucket for my BH90. I've always planned to do a bucket upgrade but not sure what size to get.

What do you think about this one?

Too big to take out an appendix--- I would stay with the 12 incher.

You never know where you'll get sound medical advice

Still, I hope you won't mind my seeking a 2nd opinion, 'cause my 12 bucket may be a little too dirty for major surgery

That one needs a quick connect to attach to the hoe. You don't have that. Cost for the bucket + attach is going to be high.

Also, that one is a bit much for the hoe. Looks nice .

TalconDancer, When you figure out how to connect that monster I'm looking to add a 12" (or 9") bucket to my collection. Contact me.

The bucket goes with the Case 580 Super L that was over for the tractor play day. I was waiting for the big boy to pull out of the quarry and it was sitting there by my BH. I just couldn't resist the photo op.

BTW the Case BH QA was a dream. The BH arm has a "hook" that wraps around the huge pipe on the bucket and a flange that mates the flange on the back of the bucket. The whole thing is held ot gether with ONE pin that make a quarter turn to lock the two flanges together. It took those two guys about two minutes to swap the bucket for Back-hoe mounted hydraulic rock ram.

I was kidding about the bucket but I DO want a BH bucket QA like that

Does anyone know of a bucket QA system like that for the BH90?
