Tooth bars

I would like to order a tooth bar for my Bush Hog 2426 loader that I just got. I would like to know where you guys got them and what you paid for it

Markham Welding llc markhamwelding.com 5/16/06 $266.00 60inch toothbar -wellbuilt and one of the cheapest talked about on here. They said they get a lot of refferals from this site.

NOT ANOTHER TOOTHBAR THREAD!!! Just kidding.

I got mine from Markham Welding. I think it was $289 for 72" bucket (actual size of tooth bar was 70.5"). Just give Melissa a call; she'll get you hooked up.

I recommend you look locally.... I found a John Deere toothbar (all 139 lbs of it) at local dealer at better price than Markham plus shipping. He let me take it on trial to see if it would fit my Kubota bucket. It did with the use of a few washers to fill in a .5 inch gap. This is one extremely tough toothbar, 6 inch teeth. Failing a local good price find, Markham has a very good reputation at TBN.

I got mine from Markham too millwrightdude,, paid $327.00 shipped for a 73'' JD bucket!! The quality appears very good, and their customer service is second to none !! Simply gave the inside measurement of my bucket (72 3/4'') and it was on my doorstep a few days later, despite funny looks from the UPS driver

It's the best $200-300 you can spend for you tractor!

How tough are the Kubota buckets to drill ?

wushaw · May 5, 2007

A sharp drill bit and a little lube will go through it with no problem.

I will call them on monday and order one.

I'll keep that in mind, if my WRLong bar does not work out I'll give them a call and order one. I told the dealer to get one over ASAP, the grapple should have been here yesterday and I told him to get one so we can do the grapple and TB install at the same time next week.
