“Great kit, free delivery, and it's heavy. One small issue with one of the shanks, extra material in the pin hole, making it difficult to install one pin.”

“I received the item in two parts. The bar is shipped separately from the teeth and teeth brackets, and arrived a day apart. The bar is likely 5/8 bar stock, and is shipped bare. The mounts and teeth had a yellow a protective coating and shipped in one HEAVY box. Because everything in my life has to be difficult, I had to do some slight modification to the bar. The FEL bucket is tapered at the bottom, from 72 inches down to about 65 or so. This caused the bar to not sit flush as it is cut at 72 inches. After a trim, I was able to set everything in place, measure out where all 9 teeth are to be placed and get ready to weld it up. As I said, everything has to be difficult. My tractor is on property with no power. Thus, I was forced to use a generator and small stick welder to tack everything in place. Then I took it all home and welded it up. This is where things got tricky.... the 5/8 bar stock warped due to the heat from the welding. I created a 9 toothed smiley face mouth! After getting back to the tractor, using a dozen c-clamps to hold it flat on the bucket, and a cutting torch to burn the holes in the side of the bucket to mount the side brackets. I had it installed in about 45 minutes. BTW, I was not able to heat up the 5/8 bar enough to bend it into shape. The tooth mounts have a clip on the bottom to attach them to the bottom of the bucket. Those mounts along with the bucket brackets hold it on well. I welded the two outside teeth at the same angle as the bucket, so they are angled toward the outside a few degrees. I immediately went to the mound of thick clay left over from some previous excavation. Prior to having the bucket teeth, I had a hard time breaking into the dirt, and could only get a laughable amount of material in the bucket. The tractor tires would just spin. BTW, it's a Zetor 3320 with an FEL, weighing about 7,500-8,000 lbs total. I have no rear ballast other than a box blade. After the teeth were installed, it chewed right in! I was able to get a full scoop of "dirt"! So much that I had trouble getting traction as the rear of the tractor became very light. That volume of material has only been possible with sand or loose dirt in the past. These teeth have drastically improved the performance, and decreased the amount of time to do work. You can't back drag with the front of the bucket, so you'll have to use the back of the bucket, but it's a minor tradeoff. If you've been thinking about getting them, DO IT! You'll have a digging machine in no time!”

“Great product. Easy in. Cut off 12” and slid it right in my John Deere 60” bucket. Assembled, set and spaced with a piece of 2x8, welded in the tops and most of the main bar. I have a 4 in 1 bucket f”
