Hi I have a bush Hog rtn 72 tiller and am in need to replacement tines. I check at the local dealer but at 12.00 each that adds up fast. Does anyone know of a source for cheeper tines? bush hog part numbers are 94581 for the right and 94582 for the left. Thanks
I did a ton of searching and found out there's a lot of tillers made by one company for multiple major companies. For my bush hog RTS-74, i found out that the tines from the following makers and models are the exact same part:
Kubota BC & BL models
Maletti L-H-CL-SLN
New Holland
Ford 105A
Gill
Kuhn EL25
Panorama
Taylor Pittsburg, 900 252
Honda HTA & HTM
Ultimately, there are really only a few part numbers ive found that all have the same specs for my tines for my tiller:
1400077 (RH tine) (these are Maletti part numbers)
1400078 (LH tine)
64454 and 64452 (bush hog's part number)
BU64454 and BU64452 (New holland/Ford/Case)
ME1400077 (LH)
ME1400078 (RH)
MA1400077 (RH)(Kverneland part number, the company that took on Maletti when they went out of business)
MA1400078 (LH)
Ive found several Italian and French websites who sell these tines for about $4.50 or less each. The problem is they either don't ship to the US or the freight would be enough to increase the price to 9.50 per tine. Anybody have friends in Italy or France who could purchase and ship for cheap? LOL
