Backhoe Kubota Backhoe Bucket Teeth Removal Tips

[mr_magoo]

I have an L48. I am trying to replace the backhoe bucket teeth. I have used an angle grinder to remove the mushroomed ends of the roll pin that holds on the tooth. I can't get the roll pin to budge with a punch and 2# hammer. Any tips for roll pin removal are appreciated. Thanks.....

Did you try heating them with a torch? I just did the same for some staging wheels, frozen solid with rust,torched them for about 2 to 3 minutes took my framing hammer and a couple of hits later they popped right out.


good luck
