Regarding the 7308 FEL standard 60" bucket VS heavy duty 60" bucket, is there a difference in the capacity, or is the HD one just stronger? What is the difference in the weight of the buckets? What price difference have people been finding? Thanks.

From my research when I was shopping for my tractor, the 60 inch standard bucket weighs 211 lbs versus 240 lbs for the heavy duty. Price difference for the heavy duty, depending on where and whom you're dealing with can vary from $50 to $200. Many dealers opt to order their tractors with heavy duty buckets only and everything I'm told indicates that the heavy duty buckets are well worth the extra dollars. ....

I do not know the price difference. I have the Super Heavy Duty Bucket. It is excellent. I have done a tremendous amount of digging and loading with it. ....
