Articulating grading bucket for 304

[danregan]

just picked up a slightly used 304, and priced the artic bucket from Cat....little steep at 3500.
Anyone have experience with an alternative manufactuer? We have Lemac buckets on the Volvo 160 and Cat 315, and a powertilt swinger on the 301.5.

Any input?

Have you priced any others. I would be really intrested ( if I was in the market ) to see how much a powertilt or similar compared to the artic bucket. Bearing in mind the powertilt gives you a lot more versatility if you have the use for it.
