The bolt-on cutter bar came from my New Holland dealer, part No. 86604458. List price - 189.90 (my price - $172.64). It bolts on the bottom of the loader and extends about 1-1/2 in. beyond the loader's bottom edge. the back edge is also bevelled down to a cutting edge, so it is reversible. Being a New Holland part, it bolts perfectly to the available mounting holes in the heavy duty bucket. No grinding required (Are you listening GMASON? This Texan is bragging...). My dealer provided me with flat headed sweep bolts to mount the bar (eight 1/2 inch, I think). I'll take a picture of the whole setup as soon as it stops pouring rain here in North Texas and send you a picture.
GMASON seems to have found a nice tooth-bar instead of the smooth cutting bar I have. I can identify with his frustration at getting the bar fitted to his bucket, but it sound like it is worth the effort. Maybe we can talk him into attaching a photo of his bar.
...come to think of it, wouldn't it be nice if we could have a place on this board for showing photos of installed dealer and third party attachments? Does this interest anyone else?
