bx23

[vlpena]

I am ordering my BX23 and it will arrive soon, I hope! I asked about a tooth bar for the FEL and the salesman said that he can't find anything on it from Kubota for the BX23. Any ideas? I've seen pictures of a tooth bar on one. Where can I get one>

Kubota doesn't make them. Your dealer needs to order them from someone like ATI, Woods, WR Long, FFC, etc. I am sure I forgot some of the manufacturers, but as you can see there are several. Many of the sponsoring dealers on this site sell them as well. Carvers sells the WR Long, ATI is also a sponsor as well as others.

It does not seem uncommon for many dealers not to be familiar with them. I know my local one wasn't familiar but was willing to look into it.

I ended up making my own ordering the teeth (made by FFC) and having a friend weld it together.

Good luck,

Vlpena, if you can't get you dealer to install a tooth bar for you here is a pictorial tutorial (I like the way that sounds) on the installation of a tooth bar which was provided courtesy of Inspector 507.

vlpena,
I received my bx23 last weekend. I had the dealer install a toothbar on it. It is made by ATI. Very stout and has replaceable teeth. After my brother in-law tried it out he went to the JD dealer (he has green) to get one for his. That dealer said they don't have them for JD. I sent him to my dealer and they got one on order for him.
