Loader Tooth Bar for 1533

aledobud · Jul 16, 2017

Can someone with a 1533 measure the inside dimensions of the loader? I am thinking about getting the Titan 60' tooth bar and it is made to fit a bucket with a 60 inch inside dimension. I don't live where the tractor lives and won't be back for a week or so. Also, if anyone has experience with this tooth bar or others, opinions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I dont have a tooth bar......yet. But the one I read the most praise for is the piranha from BXpanded. Its on my list after a ratchet rake.

About a month ago I installed a 72in piranha on a 4530. The toothbar is awesome. It meets all the promo on BXpanded's website. It takes out 2in cedars like they soft brush.

I do have a lot of brush to deal with. I can see how the Piranha could grab onto trunks a lot quicker. With just the loader edge they bend over and don't pull out of the ground until the edge catches some branches. I'm trying to just float along the ground and not dig.

If you are mostly after brush clearing, perhaps a ratchet rake instead?

That might be too special purpose. I will be doing some dirt moving. I'll probably never that off whichever toothbar I get

I have the PTB...

The PTB tends to want to dig. It will grab onto brush when the bucket is level. Great going forward and/or digging. Backward it's good for spreading. It's not a rake.

The RR grabs onto brush and is best used as a rake. Works going forward or backward. Also works for backwards spreading. It's not for digging.

Two different animals. I'm saving up my $$ for a RR as I see uses for one.
