With all this advice about not putting the hooks outside the lift arms, which by the way I am in complete agreement with, then why are tooth bars the rage when you are basically putting a hook on the outside edge of your bucket?
You could catch the corner of a bucket even without teeth, and still get that flipping effect. That's why ballast is so important. but with your tooth bar you are normally engaging the ground evenly. I've never had a tooth bar but I guess you may have to be a little more careful not to just use one side of bucket when trying to break out something.
