Hello, can anyone give me any info on this particular hydraulic bucket. I've never seen one like this on any 1 or 1 1/4 ton thwaites dumper. It's got a 2 cyl. lister petter in it. I think it's a after market idea as the old skip bucket 4-5mm think x 40cm long x 6cm wide plate support/attachment arms are still on the vehicle.
Kind Regards,
Josh

High discharge skip for Thwaites tusker, pump should run off a short drive shaft straight off the crank.

Thanks Marcus, I just got a thwaites parts manual for the 22.5cwt tusker/ orion off ebay in the post today and there's a high discharge skip tusker was on the back. You beat me to the post and i thank you very much for your reply. I've just finished pulling my gravity tilt 1cyl. lister orion apart to start it's restoration. These are very simple machines from what I've seen.
Kind Regards,
Josh

Hey Marcus, do you have picture of the skip your looking for? I have a good idea, but a picture of exactly what your looking for might help.
Cheers,
Josh
