Anyone know of a resource calling out popular BH bucket dimensions? Primarily I'm interested in pin and ear dimensions. I need to dig an LPG trench and the stock 24" wide bucket on my L48 is overkill, particularly as I'll need to buy backfill material and would like to keep that minimal. The bucket mounting pin is 1.5"D and cylinder linkage pin 1.25", pins are 7.5" center-to-center. 4.5" of clearance is required between the bucket mounting ears for both locations. I can deal with wider and shim the gap if need be. Clearing the bucket cylinder linkage during use will require at least a 10" wide bucket which is about what I'm after.
I've see some aftermarket buckets about the right size and were cheap enough. But the ear clearance is too narrow. I could build an adapter or weld on my own ears but before considering that route I'd like to assure I'm not overlooking a more straightforward option. Thanks!
