Weld on bucket teeth

[aarolar]

I would get a bolt on tooth bar. Your bucket will then be much more useful and versatile. Once they are welded on you lose the full utility of the bucket and there may be times you will regret that you no longer have the option of going toothless. The bolt on tooth bars are easy to take on and off. For me and the ways I use my tractor, I would never want permanent teeth on the bucket, and mostly I have the tooth bar off. I feel strongly about this.

Also, I don't think you would save much if any money buying separate teeth vs buying a tooth bar. But permanent teeth may work for you - depends on how you use your bucket all the time.

Considering the fact I'm buying a grapple at the same time I buy my loader I don't anticipate using the bucket much at all. Even on grandpa's tractor we mostly keep the forks on it the only time I will use the bucket would be spreading gravel or digging a hole.

I made it obviously, profiled the shank out on the plasma table and the AR is some flatbar we had leftover from a project. I would rather have the welded on teeth myself I've never favored using the bucket to backdrag much always used a back blade mostly.

Yeah, when I went back and looked at the pictures, it was obvious that you made the teeth. Is there a dealer in Augusta who sells AR500? I'm within driving distance and don't think it's available where I live.

It's not obvious. That is really quality work.

Yes... very nice! :thumbsup:

I just strut around with a SCUT and the piranha tooth bar is amazing. And I would venture to guess that it would work well on larger machines. That said, you can't argue big league teeth on the right sized machine for heavy duty use... don't think it can be beat.

I thought about making some years back. Then found some bolt on teeth. I liked the idea of being able to remove them if needed, but never have. But for the cost, I couldnt justify building teeth.

Will these teeth bolt right on and over a cutting edge? How many did you install?

How much do you need I can probably help you out our shop deals in it quite frequently and we have some drops laying around.

I had to drill and tap holes in my cutting edge. Was pretty easy with a mag base drill. I think I put 8 on the 5' bucket of my L3400.

I don't need any right now. I was looking for a source for future projects. Can I contact you when the need arises?
