Is there a consensus (or majority) opinion on the best tractor shovel/Buford bucket type attachment? I will not need a full FEL but those shovel like attachments look like just the ticket Thoughts?

Please understand this is my personal opinion. If all you need is a loader to pack mulch around to planting beds the Johnny Bucket would be great. I have never owned one and from what I can see of it there is a lot of stress being put on the frame ahead of the front wheels. Not only that but all the weight carried in the bucket loads the front axle, tires, and spindles. I broke a spindle on a 318 when I was just backing it out of the garage. As I said this is only my opinion.

You are correct about vertical lift Chuck. Johnny/Buford bucket systems would be more correct for just random landscaping usage. I do not have an overhead hoist so that is where the 44 loader comes in. I will probably be using it in the next couple of days to lift engine out of 112 square fender.
