International Harvester 3616 Tractor Loader Backhoe

Turbys_1700 · May 28, 2013

I am fixing up my dad's old IH 3616 Industrial tractor with 3141 backhoe...
I am trying to find out what size backhoe bucket tooth size is used on this unit...
Current teeth are welded on...
Does anyone have any input as to the type and size...

You should have shanks welded to the bucket with holes for pins for the teeth . If it has been used without the teeth much , the holes in the shanks are long gone .

It has teeth welded on all the shanks except for 1...
The shank that is on the bucket does not have a hole for a pin that I can tell...

Hensley makes bucket teeth . Might try a google .

Thanks Kevin...
I think that I will take a piece of cardboard and trace the shank profile dimensions...
My dad had a weldable tooth in the shed but it is too big...
