Backhoe Bucket

I tried for hours to remove and repair the last frozen bucket pin on the trencher’s front hoe bucket but it beat me. I am not often beaten like this and it is depressing. It should be said that the damage was done long before we acquired the little machine, however we have been running it as is for a while now… The power is a Vermeer 470 trencher unit with the front mounted hoe and rear chain trencher. I would like to move the hoe to the rear and scavenge a small bucket loader for the front. I think an articulated 4X4 back hoe/loader with a grader blade at less than 10000lbs would be a very nice and useful piece of equipment. Don’t do much trenching anyway.
