I have a new 96" rake on order from Leinbach Machinery with wheels. Shipped yesterday, expect by Monday. I saw one recently at an auction, looked heavy duty. Auction price was close to purchasing a new one.

I'm going to weld the old rake into a fixed position. I mostly use it without angling for cleaning ditches & cattails from around the pond. On a tractor 3 point hitch, there's not a lot of downward pressure when pulling. A skidsteer or FEL puts significant weight on the pivot point causing it to break.
