You might even be able to do it yourself.

most of us have replaced bushings in loader bucketsm and welde din new floors to the sideplated.

One user even duplicated his bucket by cutting out side plates from flat stock after patterning his old rusted out bucket.. he then got a cutting edge and top lip. welded the floor in, and then made the pivot holes/bushings from stock or machine shop.. etc.

I've thaght of just puting in a new floor because the bucket is a odd shape and still in good condition structor wise. I have acses to the equetment, So I think I will give that a try if I can be for we get more snow. thanks Soundguy Marry Christmas

If you have the equipment and the rest of the bucket is sound, a new floor has to be the cheapest way out. I have had good luck with local metal shops shearing sheets to the exact size you need so there is only some minor fitting, not extensive carving to make it new again. That's a little pricier than buying the steel in bulk, but then you don't have to handle huge heavy sheets. Good Luck!

I cut out the swiss-cheese floor in my 850's loader.. and then welded in a new floor.

not too bad

Balatonm,
Most of the Ford loader stuff - other than cylinder seals and the like is NLA.
So you'll have to get lucky and find a used one.
Why not rebuild the one you have?
Most decent welding shops could duplicate most any loader bucket I've ever seen.
