You probably already know this but your loader control also has a “float” position. If you find yourself picking up anything heavier than the small amount of firewood you moved I would seriously consider a counter weight on the back of the tractor as that will eliminate premature wear on the front axle, steering components, bearings and tires. I welded 3 1/4 inch chain hooks along the top of the bucket and 5 teeth along the wear bar on the bottom. The teeth might not be something you need but the hooks come in very handy. If you decide to use the hooks reinforce the top of the bucket first by welding a piece of 1/4 inch plate steel on the back side of bucket to leaving about 1/2 inch gap at each end for water drainage. The reinforcement plat would measure approximately 47 inches by 2 - 3 inches. I noticed that the top of your bucket is bent so straighten it before welding the reinforcement plate to it. I straightened mine with a sledgehammer. If you decide on hooks buy a short piece of chain and hook it to the outside hooks on the bucket. Then attach another chain hooked to whatever you are pulling to the center of that short chain creating a bridal effect rather than attaching it to one hook in the center of the bucket. You can still use a single hook on the middle of the bucket for light loads but I would definitely use the bridal setup for heavier loads. I bought my 2320 new in 2009 so I speak from experience.
