L48 backhoe buckets

[2005 L48]

I am trying to find a replacement pin on 12” bucket for my 2005 Kubota L48 BT1100. I can’t find one anywhere in town or online. Is there a way to cross reference to find buckets for other tractors that will fit? Do I need to search a different way?

Look for bh92 buckets.
They also have 1-1/2 and 1-1/4 pins, or you can switch to the U series quick attach. I have a 12” in my sig.

I have an L48, but bought a 16" bucket because my hyd. thumb is 14" wide, and a 12" bucket did not make sense.
Coleman Equipment (kubota) has a bunch of 12" buckets listed on their website.
You could also try Werk-Brau.com, a manufacturer for Kubota
And,.... aimattachments.com,.... also a bucket manufacturer.

Several on eBay. Need your length and diameter. Pin on or quick attach? All size buckets attach with the same pins.
Messicks has nice parts diagrams for your machine. With part numbers, price and availability. Have to register to see.

In his original post, he did state that he is looking for "pin on".

Fried1765, Sometimes you have to dig a little harder than the catalog numbers. The k7770 quick coupler is made for the bt1100. I have one on my bh92 in my sig as proof. The BT bucket pictured is made for a bh92. If you dig around, kubota is pretty consistent with pin/bucket configurations. That bucket pictured is just the newer design, adding mainly the side cutter. According to kubota what I am running does not exist.

I am not anywhere my L48 now, but as I recall, the bucket ear separation is 8-3/4" on the buckets to fit my BT1100 coupler.
From the photos of that 12" BT3001 bucket it does not look possible that those ears could be 8-3/4" apart.
