Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't there two different 
perimeter designs for late buckets?   Seems one had a slight notch or 
the like, to accommodate a weld seam or something like that... been a 
while, but I think there's a small difference in the bucket 
itself...  not enough to keep them from interchanging but enough to notice.
