HD Loader Buckets Don\'t Fit
Just discovered my HD 72" Loader bucket for the 460 loader won't fit on the loader frame. The right retaining pin is welded too high on the bucket and it won't register into the loader bracket hole. My dealer checked with Deere and they acknowledged a manufacturing defect. If you get one, ask for a new bucket as it shouldn't be a field fix either to trim the pin or enlarge the bracket hole to make this thing fit. Those things will wear out over time anyway - no need to accelerate the process.
