I just put my thumb on my BH75A, I had no idea what that part was for either. I use it to go in between the two plates on the crowd arm so that the link does not have play in it? I am not sure if that what it is for but it works great for that.

Thanks I got an email from Richard that looks like what it was intended for.

You're correct. The red "thingy" with the two spacers goes on the upper end of the link.

I love my thumb. I've been "harvesting" rocks for a retaining wall I'm building and use the BH w/ thumb to grab the rocks and then drop them where I can pick them up with in the bucket with the grapple I have on it and then off I go to the place where I'm building the wall.

You did a lot better than I did. Richard shipped it right away. Ordered 3/14, he notified PO on 3/16, arrived at his PO on 3/17, arrived in Montreal 3/19 and to me in NH on 3/31. It has to be further from his place to Montreal than from Montreal to me. They must have a dogsled down for maintenance.:D
Took only 5 minutes or so to put on thumb. Skid plates go on soon.

I need a rear skid plate for my 2350 and every time I go on the site they say to check e-bay. All I ever find there is the thumb!:confused:

Send Richard an email, and order directly from him. That's what I did several months ago, and he responded quickly.
