I just purchased a 2007 Case cx50b, I was looking for a thumb and used buckets. What other machines buckets can I use? Cat 305? deere 50D? Just thought if anyone knew of what machines have the same pin diameter?

Do you have a coupler? You certainly can use New Holland, and Kobelco buckets (same machine) if you dont have a coupler.

I have a Werq Brau coupler on our CX50B. We have WB buckets and a Trench Fang. I use 1-3/4 cylinder rod for pins. You probably won't find a used thumb, as nobody would ever take one off. Ours has a WB that mounts with the main pin and a weld-on cylinder mount. It works well, but is 14" wide. We have the thumb pressure set so the bucket will curl it back. Get a new thumb, as they are more than worth it.
