Are you happy with it? Well constructed?

I contacted them and was quoted a very good price, $150 + $60 shipping. Makes me wonder why others charge $300 ish??

Let me know your thoughts.

I have one on my Kubota, 48" and I really do like it. As with anything for the tractor, it is an attachment and mine comes off as needed. It will improve your dig. The added weight is the only concern, but it is worth it.

I have one - mine was around $260 plus shipping (had them add an extra tooth - 8 I think instead of 7) Very well constructed in my opinion (I've used it to tear up 600' to 800' of old asphalt driveway)

No problems at all - other than I blew it on the measurement I gave them - I was an inch too long (thankfully I wasn't short on the measurement) and I had to remove the side brackets on both ends, cut a recess in the first tooth on either side, and weld the brackets back on.

The teeth are beginning to show some wear ... but that's to be expected after all the asphalt I've torn up I'd imagine. (The teeth are replacable) If I were going to be doing that kind of thing regularly it might pay to have the faces on the teeth hardened, by laying some bead on 'em.

I've had one a little over 2 weeks now.
Like many others have stated ; " I don't know how I got along without it ."
Markham builds a great bar at the best price I found!
Another plus, they have top notch customer service.

Thanks!

Just wanted to make sure, their price is so much lower than others. May just be a lack of third party markups.

Will order today and hopefully have early next week!

I bought a Markham toothbar 2 weeks ago and it is as good or better that the Woods toothbar that I bought 2 years ago. Plus they are great people to deal with and ship the same day! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Not right now they don't. They are nice, but are out of teeth right now and don't expect any till the end of July.

Wait for the deal, or spend more now..........

I think I'll wait for them. Saving $100 sounds good to me!

I contacted them yesterday and was given a price of $200 plus $59 shipping. they are closed next week except for the girl in the office for vacation . and like cdash said they are having a hard time getting teeth.
the lady said that calls have been flooding them and they found out about this site. it just proves that word of ........screen advertisement is awesome!
