Tooth Bar what kind?

[JOELENAHAN]

I bought a Woods TB from my dealer. Cost Was $300.00. I think that this was the best implement that I have ever bought for my tractor.

Henro, any idea what the cost is for the "landscape" toothbar from H&H for a 54" bucket?

Bob,

Sounds like you are asking me to remember something... /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I don't recall the price...but I think they are competitive. With the increasing price of steel, I suppose they are going up too...

Wish I could do better... /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Hope this is not a sign of old age setting in... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Thanks for all your replies and advice. Now I have some direction.

Here's the Markham toothbar on 48" BX bucket, this is heavy, and indestructable on this tractor. I think it's almost overkill because it does eat up lift capacity, and it is well forward of the pins where lift capacity is measured. I'd still buy it though, because it digs so well.

I bought a MARKHAM for a BX2200 FEL. It is a Nice unit and bolted on in about 10 minutes. I live clear across the country, I ordered it on a thursday the built it and got it shipped the next day and I put it on the next wednesday! Fast service and user friendly ordering. $150 for a 5 tooth 48 inch + shipping. Even with shipping it was less expensive than a local purchase

if you have a bx 23 with a 48 inch bucket what size tooth bar do you need? is it exactly 48? i would measure it myself but it has not been delivered as of yet and dealer is out of stock. how much does the markham unit weigh? thank you

Take a tape measure and measure the INSIDE of your bucket, just behind the cutting edge. Measure the distance from the depth of the cutting edge and thickness of it just to be sure when you call the order. John

You guys have got me wanting to buy another attachment. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif I have a 60" bucket but no toothbar. What type work do you do that requres a toothbar?

I have a 66" heavy duty bucket with a heavy duty toothbar attached to the bucket with two big bolts. It goes on and off in about 5 minutes. I have a kubota L3130.

The work I usually do with my toothbar involves digging out small stumps and pushing over trees. The teeth catch the branches really well. For example, I pushed out several juniper bushes and the teeth dig into the branches so well that just keeping the bucket a couple feet off the ground, with the bucket buried in the branches, the bush is no match for my tractor. The I can easily transport the bush whereever I need it. Without the teeth, I doubt I could carry the bush.

Also, the teethbar really helps to dig into the soil to get a load of dirt. If you have a box blade, try using it without the scarifer teeth and you'll maybe find the box blade can sometimes just skim over the dirt. But with the scarifiers down, the dirt gets broken up before you blade it. ThHe same holds true on a FEL bucket.

If you do dirt work, you'll be happy to have a toothbar.
