Heavy-Duty Front Dump Bucket for Skid Steers & Loaders

When it comes to tackling tough jobs on the farm, ranch, or construction site, not every bucket can deliver the reach, strength, and reliability you need. That’s where the front dump bucket from Loflin Fabrication steps in. Designed with ranchers, farmers, and heavy-equipment operators in mind, this attachment makes loading and unloading easier, faster, and safer.

Unlike standard skid steer buckets, the Loflin front dump bucket offers about five extra feet of dumping height and three extra feet of reach. That means you can easily clear high-sided trailers, dump over fences, or unload into bins and containers that traditional buckets just can’t reach. For ranchers moving feed, or construction crews loading trucks, that extra lift translates into serious efficiency.

Built from 3/16” heavy-duty steel plate, this bucket isn’t afraid of long days in rugged environments. The ¾” × 6” welded cutting edge ensures you can scoop, scrape, and handle abrasive material without wearing it down too quickly. And when it does need attention, there’s an optional bolt-on reversible edge so you can swap or flip it to extend the life of the bucket.

Durability doesn’t stop there. Oversized 1¼” greasable pins, along with Parker hoses and fittings, make maintenance straightforward and cost-effective. Two 2” × 10” hydraulic cylinders provide reliable dumping power every time. Whether you’re moving manure, gravel, silage, or dirt, this bucket is engineered for heavy lifting.

Operator safety is also front and center. Integrated safety treads give you stable footing when climbing in and out of the cab, reducing slips and accidents. Combined with the smooth hydraulic performance and rugged build, it gives operators confidence that the job will get done quickly and safely.

For ranchers and farmers, this attachment is more than just a bucket — it’s a daily workhorse. Clearing pens, loading trailers, handling feed, or even moving snow in the winter, the front dump bucket saves time, reduces manual labor, and increases overall productivity. And because it comes in multiple sizes — 72”, 78”, 84”, and 96” — you can choose the one that matches your skid steer or loader perfectly.

If you’re looking for a dependable, American-made solution that adds versatility to your machine while cutting down on wasted time and effort, the Loflin Fabrication front dump bucket is the attachment that delivers.
