Hoe Bucket Shortage?

[Maineiac]

I still haven't heard from Carver about a 12" hoe bucket that I ordered with my LB1914. The tractor came about a month and a half ago with a 16" bucket. Does anyone have any news on this? I know the buckets were in short supply a month ago.

Yikers, I need to do a lot of trenching for permanent irrigation lines soon and want to put a 9" in place of the 18 on my KB2375. I hope a dealer somewherer has one of these on hand. Maybe there are aftermarket or custom bucket builders with product for these backhoes we have. Guess I'll google it and see. It'd be great to find a high capacity bucket 9 to 10 inches wide with a taper to it so that stuff doesn't stick too bad when one attempts to empty it.

I have the buckets if you are in need.
Rhino buckets will also fit... all you have to do is take and grind the washer off of the end of the pin so that the lock bolt hole lines up.
