Bucket options for BH92

[John E. Law]

I’ve got a L4802 with a BH92 that has a pin-on 18” trenching bucket and a hydraulic thumb. I don’t see a lot of different bucket options available. I’d like to have a grading/ditch bucket. Any suggestions? It looks like an assache to swap out pin-on buckets with a hydraulic thumb so maybe someone can set me straight by telling me this is a bad idea to begin with.

i just had a narrow small trenching bucket with no teeth made for my bh92. my dealer contacted the company that makes oem buckets for the bh92 and had it made for me. it wasnt what i would call cheap but there really isnt another choice i could find. ran me 1200 for it but it beats the min excavator rental fees over time for all the trenching and horse obstacle building i need to do. mine is a qd bh92 but it can go eitber way

Not sure if this helps or not?

EDIT: Or what about possibly removing the teeth, and fabricating some sort of "smooth edged” attachment?

I have never seen a BH92 in person, but I’m pretty sure my 77’s teeth are bolted on, so it would appear as if they are fairly easy to remove (although honestly I have never had to do it)

Just an idea……….

Curious, so I looked on the CDN Kubota parts finder website, they list, 12-16-18-24-20 and 36" buckets and they have pinned on teeth.
I'm not allowed access to the Kubota.USa website ,but I assume they have them ?

Yes they do. The Canadian buckets and QA are made by a different manufacturer. Off hand I think mine is H&H
