Vintage loader identification

[Gibby2235]

Hello all, I know it's not much to go on, but any chance anyone can shed some light on this loader? Superior maybe? The guy who has it doesn't know who made it or what it fits, but it's cheap. I'm going to look at it this week, and as long as the dimensions will work, I can fab some brackets. I have a 63 Ford 2000 4cyl gasser.
Thanks!

Just tell him you were looking for hyd. dump on the bucket. The seller will have heard this a bunch of times. Many of these had a pump mounted off the front crank of the motor. The couplings were made of rubber and of course are long gone. You should be able to purchase for near scrap price.

I had one that looked like that on my IH 300 Utility,

Had one like that on a Massey Harris 20 (or was it Harris 20). Hyd up via one way cyl and down by bled back and dump by pulling a cable.
Basically a manure bucket.

It's definitely old, and while a trip buckets may not be ideal, it sure beats a shovel! I'm just wanting to be able to move loose material anyway.

Might work, I have a similar bucket on a Kelley 2000 loader on a B275 tractor. A trip bucket is no dream. These were built primarily to load manure, other materials not as good. Mine sometimes dumps when I don't want it to.
I don't see hydraulic valve, pump, or mounting brackets. IN my youth I bought a loader such as this, used it for years, as I didn't have anything better. Still I urge you to wait until you can find a hydraulic bucket loader that is equipped for a 2000. If you are a skilled fabricator sell your skills to someone who needs you and buy a good loader for your needs, or start from scratch.
