Dirt Scoop Found

320Forest · Sep 13, 2016

It listed on Craigslist and we got it for 150 in Claremore. Had enough time before dark to grab 6 loads of topsoil, the tractor handles it just fine.

I know where one is sitting and I could really use one. It's not in as good a shape as your, but I'm afraid he'll want a new price for it. I may give him a call this weekend.

They are a really useful implement , especially for gravel and sand . Does yours dump forwards or backwards ?

Wish i could find a scoop for that price and a blade for a decent price... SA and NSW seem to be better for fergie parts than QLD.

Dont panic USofA, I am talking Australian... WE have craigslist, but it is crapola, we use gumtree..

The old poorman's loader. I've used them many times, A very useful tool for little money.

My brother and I once cleaned out a pond with one of those on a Ferguson, and a rear mounted blade on the other one.

Two boys, two tractors, and a seemingly unlimited supply of mud. Had a great time.

Here's the video of my first attempts at the dirt moving. I've got a lot of work to do on this place, can't wait to move out of the garage one room (270sqft) apartment we made to save during construction andinto the house.

Never seen anyone dump one going backwards. We always dumped going forward.

Does your tractor not lift high enough to do that?

The Later English made Ferguson soil scoop dumps backwards , this made it easier to fill deep trenches and holes .

320Forest · Sep 15, 2016

Boss Hog, I'll check to see if it will dump forward. I had pulled in and dropped the first loads far in, then decided to just fill back so I can rake or blade out later.

Ha charles. IN your photo above on the RHS (maybe your lift jib) the wide connctor for the top link that connects below the draft control to the long hinged pin... Do you have a close up photo of this as i am in the process of making one up for my lilft jib. Want to see how similar it is to what i have made up.

Here you go

It is at the farm at the moment , from memory the bracket is made from at least 10mm steel . Far too thick to bend in a back shed , best to cut and weld together or do as I have done in the past. Score at least halfway if not further through the thickness then pound on the steel to bend it round . This gives a really neat finish and makes welding at the back easy .
