Scoop bucket

[skeets]

I just found a Farm Force Scoop bucket on an IH 234,,
Would it fit my BX 2360 and has anyone ever heard of Farm Force? I havent called the guy cause i wanted to find out about it first and see if its worth a hundred bucks

I think Farm Force is made by Tarter Gate. Do you mean this?

An IH 234 has 18 engine/15.2PTO HP. Your BX 2360 is rated at 23 engine. If the IH has no problem driving around with the loaded weight, I don't think you will. Both tractors have a CAT. 1 3PT hitch, so you're good to go there.

Kubota says your 3pt is rated for a 670lb. lift capacity 24" behind the pin. That scoop weighs 255lb. That means you should be able to lift 425lb. of material with it. Naturally you're gonna want a FEL or weights on the front of your rig to balance this. It wouldn't hurt to increase your track width on the rear axle either.

If I had the need, I'd put one on my B1750.

Sucks man, I've had people burn me on craigslist many times like that. I'm pretty sure they sell the model I linked above at Tractor Supply. Good luck!
