    The only direct fit (correct geometry), would be Link-Belt, Case, and JCB. All have the same Sumitomo geometry

    buy yourself a coupler like the jrb rotoloc, they allow for various pin spacings. i have a 690E deere, 210 lc-7 hyundai, and a 210 case, all with that coupler, and all these machines can grab/utilitize any bucket from the other machines. they're pretty slick. i'm sure there are other manufacturers that make a similiar unit.
