I an looking to buy a tooth bar for my Kubota b20, 54" FEL. I have been reading different postings in TBN. I have come across two different suppliers; CARVER Equipment and MARKHAM. Is one better than the other, i.e. quality, durability, or are they all the same? Could use some HELP!

I just purchased the toothbar from Markham, the price was great, the delivery fast, the product in excellent shape. It is for a Kubota after I installed it i have used it and it does make a world of difference in digging. I recommend Markham

We got ours at Carver. Attached is a pic of it in our 72" bucket.

After about 500 hours of use, I did manage to break off the center tooth on the bucket on a tree trunk.... /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

When I bought my BX23 I got an AIT toothbar with it from the dealer. After about 120 hours of heavy digging I have yet to do anything to it other than wear the paint off of it.

Mine was made by ATI. The first one I got from a nearby dealer and the second one the dealer I bought the tractor from got it in for me. It looks more heavy duty than a lot I've seen pics of. I believe I saw a link to them on the top of one of these pages.

I got an FFC Toothbar for my Kubota L3130, LA513 FEL. Cost was about $375. Excellent toothbar and I'd definitely buy another one just like it, if I busted it.

I have a 60" Woods brand and so far so good. A lot of heavy use and has held up great. $279 delivered through my dealer I bought my tractor from.

After looking around, I ordered a 73" toothbar for a JD 4600 from Markham today, $317 delivered.

JD4600 with 460FEL with homemade palet fork and 7'6" Meyers Snow Plow, JD LX279, 84" KK finishing mower, 84" KK Landscape Box, 84" KK Landscape Rake, 84" KK Blade, and 72" KK Bush Hog, 1956 GMC 10 Yard Dump Truck

I'm a big fan of these toothbars...

Click here...to go to the web site...

The unique thing about this company is that their tooth bars are V shaped and totally cover the cutting edge. That makes for a very strong lower lip when the toothbar is installed.

Mine goes on or off in a couple minutes.

I love it and would not want a different type, even though the others seem to work just dandy.

With this toothbar I never fear bending my lower lip...

For digging, any toothbar is better than no toothbar though... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Just dumb luck on my part that I ended up with this particular brand, as that is what my dealer was selling at the time...

I've attached a pic of what mine looks like after a couple years of hard use ( well not THAT hard, but pretty good use...).

PS...54" bucket on Kubota B2910.
