Finding Compatible Buckets

I see lots of adds listing mini buckets for cat 305 etc but hardly anyone gives the actual numbers. I have a Komatsu PC50uu-2 and would like to find a trenching bucket around 12".

My current bucket is about 2' wide with a smooth blade connected, no teeth.

I measure the pins at 45mm, center to center spacing looks to be 10 3/16", and clear space between the ears is 7 1/8", although there is a lot of play side to side. Not sure if it is even an original bucket.

Is there a standard Komatsu size that is close to my measurements? It would be super easy for me to be off a 1/16.

I need a better way to search online for one of these. I do not have a quick attach.

I ordered some shims so I will have a chance to get some better measurements when I put them on, hopefully this weekend.bucket.jpeg

Hopefully this post will have the bucket chart attached. Unfortunately the measurements provided for the US model PC50-2 do not appear to be the same for my grey market PC50uu-2. It will cross off some other models that won't work for me and hopefully help someone else.
