Bucket for a Dunham Leher Loader

[David1]

Looking for a 7 or 8 ft bucket to fit a Model 22 Dunham lehr loader. This one has a single cylinder in the center to tilt the bucket. All the ones I ever see are 6 ft. Did they make bigger ones or do I have to try and make some other bucker work?

Around here if a anyone needs a bucket, we go to the local dealer who builds equipment. If you can either give them good measurements or let them have the tractor while they build it they'll make a really good bucket, and most farmers have one from them.

If you are handling heavier stuff like manure or dirt, or breaking out of piles a 6' is plenty for those loaders they aren't built the heaviest. A good loader for light work, we had one on a 574 IH that we scraped our dairy lot with but not so good for bulldozing or bigger tractors.
