The older (orange) Minnesota 250 boxes should have the removable front piece. Used to be made by Prison Industries, when they used to work for R&B.

You did not say what model or size picker but the older pickers will not work with those big wagons, new ones may but be carful that with the large wagons that if you get in soft groung therte is a possibility if you have a bigger tractor on the picker that you could litterly pull the frame of the picker apart, and when the pickers were made the boxes were 125 bu and 165 bu sizes, you may be able to get the larger ones under the wagon elevator but remember that you are pulling a lot more weight through the picker than it was designed for.

Here in MN, there are many 220bu Parker gravity boxes that have the removable front extension.

I have 4 now, work well with the picker, and paired they haul grain away from the elevator real well too.

Heres what I use.

Its a 225 bushel Kilbros wagon Model 350.

Its a close fit on the elevator to the wagon with that foot board on there.

You are probably looking for a Ficklin 185, I have a couple of 231's, but the front extention has to be removed and you have to be careful when you turn or the elevator hits the side extentions.
