My NH DZ25 subcompact. I have a 4' bucket and a 42" PTO snow blower.
The FEL is a good match; a bucket load of A grade gravel is the max weight it can handle; then there's snow.
I'm looking for a 'snow job bucket'. The wettest snow weight is less than 1/2.
I have a large yard, tight quarters and heavy 3 lane traffic. A deeper, higher but no wider bucket with a 'curl forward curve' that could push more than 6' before overflowing.
The goal is to save bouncing time on my rig and myself. I'd really like to avoid fabricating 1/2 dozen prototypes before getting it right.
Does anybody have designs or sites on this re-inventing the wheel.
Thanks

Probably be cheaper to buy a bigger material bucket. I added a SSQA 60 inch to my Massey GC, it's great for snow, firewood etc.. You could check with EA, they have all kinds of buckets.

Thanks atsah, it's an option. I'm not sure I could pull off a 60" bucket with the crazzy tight quarters I have to manoevre in, with the snow blower hanging off the end.
Unless I could get real good at quick on quick off with the bucket... in -30deg with a north wind.
Thanks

They have many sizes, 54 might work better. I do mostly material moving myself so the 60 works for me on my tractor, the 48 was a great digging bucket but I don't do much digging with my tractor..
