Did you try to source the bucket ears thru Messicks? They would be from Wholegoods so you have to go thru sales department not parts. Should be able to get a part # from an wholegoods price sheet posting.

Just looked at 2015 Wholegoods price sheet. Did not see qa ears sold separately for L39 or L45. Sorry. Still might get a lead from Messicks. They are very customer oriented.

To my knowledge only werk-brau makes these particular ears, many places are dealers for werk-brau but they have to be ordered. My dealer contacted them because when I did they told me to have a dealer contact them, and wouldn’t give me a price. When my dealer did so w-b told them they would have to make them since they have none in stock. The dealers price was the above price plus freight. So I’m under the assumption that all dealers should have the same if not similar pricing to get these pieces from the same manufacture? I could be wrong.

Odd that ears for the B26 and M59 are available thru Wholegoods and not offered for the L39 or L45.

Some machine shops were getting water jet and laser cutting tables that could easily be programmed to cut plate. Some could scan dimensions from a phone photo. You could make 10 sets for just a little more than one set. Niche market value to recover cost?

I could never find a drawing for B26 bucket ears. Did a trace on cardboard for template. It’s ears are unique for a flare that helps align the stick and half hole plates to align the one rear pin. Makes changing buckets super quick and easy. Needed to adjust the template for the hand held plasma cutter offset. Decide to drill or cut the holes. Probably need some fixture to hold the ears while welding on an attachment. Effort for multiple sets be worth it. I just needed one to make a ripper tooth. Have three buckets. While at the dealer just bought a set of ears $225. Haven’t made a ripper yet.
