My new bucket teeth

Bobcat Bucket Teeth

This place was the cheapest I could find. I did find another place that had a much larger selection of bolt on but prices were $12 ea up to $25ea plus.

This company was out of PA, had them in stock. Ordered on a tuesday morning and delivered on a thursday:thumbsup:

We'll see how I like them. But if It turns out that I never take them off, I will get weld on ones next time. Bolting them on took longer than It should have.

I just ordered 8 of these. $76.87 to the front door.

I appreciate the write up.:thumbsup:

Great. You will have to do a write up when you get them and install them.

What kind of tractor or skid loader are you putting them on??

Do you have a way to drill the cutting edge if it is hardened??

I ordered the teeth on the 9th and they were on my doorstep on the 11th!

They are going on a Kioti DK50.

There are 6 predrilled holes on the cutting edge so I'll just need 6 more for the back holes as well as 4 holes for the other two teeth.

I'm gonna try a 5/8 drill bit. I'll have to enlarge the holes on the teeth and the tractor about 1/16th.

They are too small for 5/8 and too large for 1/2". The are also too small for M16.

I would just use 1/2" bolts and call good.

I ended up going that route. I tried to take the teeth up to 5/8 and toasted a new bit.

Installed 6 teeth today.

I drilled holes(most of them, my drill fried) to install the other two teeth at either end, at an angle(saw it on my grader's 943, so I copied it).

They aren't perfectly straight because I left my speed square at the house. :mur:

Dont worry about the crooked teeth. Mine are that bad too. Did you see the pics at the beginning??:laughing:

And IIRC I even used a square. But no center drill and the bits walked just a tad. But works just fine.
