I'm working on a 615. It will get new hydraulic lines, control valve, and be quick hitch capable, so that it can use skid steer attachments.

The current bucket is rusted badly and would need to be rebuilt. I've found a few 4 in 1 buckets locally and am wondering what your thoughts are on this? Any idea what the oem 56" bucket weighs? The 4 in one weighs in at about 1,300 lbs.

I've used them before and they are handy picking up brush, logs, and opening it up and using it as a dozer blade. I'm afraid the extra weight will reduce the amount of material that I can move.

For reference, the loader rating on the 615 is: full height lift capacity 3,200 lbs. Break-out capacity 6,200 lbs.

I can see the handy factor in the 4 in 1 ,and that maybe lost if you don't keep it on mostly. But since you have the quick change if it limits you from a full scoop of dirt, get regular bucket for when it really matter like filling truck.
