- What kind of chain hooks work well with the RK37 bucket?
Recommended Tooth Bar for RK37 bucket? ( The web site says the bucket is 61".)
The RK37 bucket seems a bit light weight so I am wondering if a particular brand/model chain hook works really well with it or if it needs reinforcing.
I have an RK37 on order (oops, it's at the store - 3 weeks early) but noticed the bucket does not have holes for a teeth or a tooth bar. Uses:
- - snow plowing 1-2X in winter - rarely get a lot. But it means the bar needs to come off.
- - Moving mulch
- - leveling an area behind the house - 0 to 3 feet deep now. 40x20 ft long. I am considering the ratchet rake vs. a bolt on tooth bar vs. temporary (2 bolts) tooth bar.
- - moving fallen trees - plan to use the bucket to pus to side or a hook on a rope / 3/8 chain to hold in place. Hard to justify a $2,000 grapple and front hydraulics with the amount of wood work I plan on.
- - digging French drain - I have a single blade plow that really digs deep. Bucket is for moving stone to fill
- - forest brush cleanup / trail making - no rush
