Anyone have success finding replacement teeth for Ansung bh? Not very happy with Branson 4720H and backhoe. Purchased new, as package deal. Bh: shipped with wrong stabilizers, subframe split, grease fittings frozen, poor factory welds failed. Poor to no customer support. Tractor: probs with steering, transmission, exhaust, poor service and lousy parts availability. Have 2 Kubotas with virtually no problems and great dealer supports.

I abused my BH (dropping the bucket into rocks to break them) and busted a couple of teeth. My dealer (Dave's) has replacements in stock.
The rest of my abuse hasn't done anything to the tractor at all; you sure you didn't drop the tractor off of a cliff? I'd be interested to see pics of the failed welds, as mine all look pretty nice. What "wrong stabilizers" did you get, and when did you notice this?
I'm not typically one to ask where you are, but in the interests of avoiding dealers who apparently deliver tractors with serious things wrong with them -- what's your location?

Sorry to hear about your tractor problems and disappointing dealer.
Daves in Red Bluff CA and Big Red in Texas both do mail order parts.

Central Oregon location. Original selling dealer was fantastic. Then, he sold business and support has been terrible. Bh was shipped from factory with stabilizers that were too long, but later replaced. Weld did not penetrate on replacement and fell apart. Subframe was replaced with factory modifications. I have never dropped the bucket, but several teeth broke. Will see if I still have photos of split subframe

Branson switched backhoe suppliers from Ansung to another company whose name I forgot with the BL2xx series. They look very similar and have very similar specs. Dave's says that the only significant difference is the new ones have stays to keep the stabilizers up. On the Ansungs they tend to drift down. (I put an old motorcycle tiedown betweeen mine).
I suggest working with Dave's Tractor in Red Bluff to get your issues taken care of.
