Brownie 450 is giving good advice. If the pivot opint is moved rearward, the geometry will likely be made worse, or not work, or allow excess force to be applied to the rams on the bucket , bending them. I would get solid measuremants (vertically and length) for the original location of the bushing. Then I would trim off the material that is torn from eash side evenly such that I had good clean metal, square to the new extension to be made. I would use heavy wall rectangular tubing (or round if it is round arm material) and make an extension that fits inside the clean arm hole and has the new bushing inside it already. Then I would make two plates to fit on both sides of that, to fill it out to the original width. Welding this to the frame arms, and the new extension, finishes the extension. Putting the bushings in the added part before welding saves aggrivation. JimN
