Tooth bar for H.D. bucket w/bolt on edge

jsduke · May 30, 2004

Hello all!

I need to put a toothbar on my 3130 hd bucket. I know there are a number manufactured for buckets w/ a bolt on edge.

Problem is the exact inside dimension, needed to determine the correct size, varies due to 'reinforcing' and bucket layout.

In other words the inside walls of the bucket are not just flat plate. At the lower front corners of the bucket are 'V' shaped recessed areas that are approx. 1/4 inch deep each. Depending on where the mounting extensions need to fasten to the bucket... this could get tricky! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Anybody put a TB on a bucket of this type?

Thanks.

What I did was to measure the outside dimension of the bucket, subtract the thickness times 2, the another ½" to ensure clearance.

Worked for me...

Hi Duke.
My dealer ordered my toothbar for my HD 66" bucket for my L3130 HST. I dont have dimensions, but here is a picture of my toothbar.
Hope this helps.
