Hi Gary
The hook in my picture is from a Swedish company called Gunebo. Bruce has a great set of photos in his reply and the one I have most closely resembles the Excel Racing Hook as mine also have the curved back on them to conform to the backhoe bucket.
A friend of mine owns the company that carries the hooks I used but even my heavily discounted price is in the $30 CDN range. I guess that's the difference between Swedish and Chinese steel!
You can probably get a better price on the Excel one if it is American made. I just traded my B26 for an L45 and picked up 5 of the 2 ton rated Gunebo hooks and will get the welded on by next weekend.
Regards,
Lauren
