Backhoe hoe replacement...help!

hwinch5 · Aug 23, 2014

My 1964 Ford 2000 Industrial backhoe hoe broke today while digging out an 8 yr old oak stump! Ouch...Any recommendations for replacement? What to look for, what to avoid & how to make sure the replacement is exactly what I need. It's an 18" bucket with 4 teeth.

Thanks for the help,

The easiest way to find a replacement is to measure the diameter of the pins on the bucket, the distance between the ears for both pins, and the distance center to center of the pins. This combined with the size of bucket will help.

Are you saying the bucket broke? Or the hoe broke? If it's the bucket, how about a picture. I've seen them brake where they kinda look like a torn can; and where they pin to hoe. If it is just a bucket that is broken you can either heatnbeat into shape and reweld or start hunting for new.
