So, I recently acquired from auction a LA724 loader to fit into my L3940. Unfortunately, it didn't come with a bucket. Someone has a L2273 bucket for sale for a reasonable price a few hours away; that bucket was for the previous generation loader, the LA723. I was wondering if the pin design is similar enough that I can utilize that bucket on my new LA724.

I have thought about a SSQA adapter, but I can't find the original Kubota one (the L2226) and all the aftermarket quotes I'm getting are in the $1k+ range and with multiple month lead times. Coleman Equipment does have then, but they're backordered and only for local customers... and I'm in Michigan, they're in Kansas.

Here’s a solution to pin-on implements that has worked really well for me… and didn’t reduce the loader capacity with a heavy SSQA…no moving parts…no bent-lever possibilities, etc: (and also see BullDog’s post immediately after):
