Look closely at your bucket there and see how heavy the material is. Most bucket have a beam there that tranfer the force from the quick attach to the oputside edges of the bucket. I have also seen where a hooked was welded on each side at the top. Right on the outside edges.A 3/8' grade 70 transport chain will be strong enough for steady pulls. I never like jerking on something in a attempt to pull it.This way you can lift the loader arms to get the right amount of downward force on the front tires for traction and hopefully protect the operator with the bucket.You can also use the bucket tilt cylinder to pull in cases when the wheels want to spin.Ken</blockquote>
