Just received my new set of tines and have started to replace them. Unfortunately, as received they don't fit. The profile on the attachment end is much different than the factory tines. Have about a third of the tines installed and had to grind on each and every one of them to make fit.
Before anyone asks, I'm not going to say who I bought these from as I have yet to contact them.
Looking at the pics it should be obvious what the problem is. Can't say for sure if my tiller is something "special" or the mfgr didn't follow the factory profile on the attachment end. Gonna take a fair amount of time to rework 32 tines to get them to fit. Hope the qlty of the steel and the temper is better than the profile.
Right now all I can say is, if you have plans to replace your tines, be prepared to modify them so they fit.
Paid ~$240 including transportation for the set and with the needed mod, it's going to take maybe 4 hrs to replace the old ones.
