Ripper type tooth for my Backhoe scoop

I don't think a clamp on will stay put once you start putting the power to it ...

https://www.bxpanded.com/bx25d makes a "Quick-On" which it's a matter of seconds to swap out stuff on the end ... They make a ripper tooth too ...

Thats the system I have for my 77, and it works great.

The only “thing” is the “quick discount pin” kept falling/getting bumped out, so I went with a bolt and Ny-lock style nut.

It is a little annoying to have to use a wrench, but it sure beats looking for that pin when it falls out.

Even with that “flaw”, I would still recommend it.

I have pulled many stumps with mine. Some of them were “pretty good size” too.

I've only "lost" my pin once, and that was using the 6" trenching bucket in rocky ground ...



For those that don't know ... How it works is you hang the red pin in the slot, and then pivot the purple hole up and put in the pin, and fasten with the clip, that I "lost" in the first picture ...



If you click on the link in post #2 and look at the pictures, there is a video in there that shows it being done ...

I am EXTREMELY Happy with this system, it truly turns my TLB SCUT into a Swiss Army Knife Tractor with all kinds of extra capabilities!

My weekend adventures in land clearing - mostly 6-12in trees - for a road expansion with my OEM bucket made me start thinking about a better solution. I need to rip out roots and pull out the stump all while not leaving a huge hole and piles of dirt that I then have to sculpt back into firm ground.

Lo and behold... I find that - as usual - the interweb was way ahead of me. Bxpanded makes exactly what I had envisioned and at a cost that is reasonable when I consider the time and effort plus material costs to fab something of my own.

This group is a great resource for getting great feedback from people who already own and are using the product. I am basically sold on it now.

Does anyone know if BXpanded offers a OTT discount?

I'm not aware of any discounts, but I can say that they build top quality products which will probably last you a lifetime!

I also got there 2" receiver hitch, never really used it at all, the other day I was stringing out another strand of barb wire ... So I put it on for the first time ...

BH's are handy!

A couple of wraps around the pin, and it's ready to tighten, just don't over do it!



Once you get the Quick-On, you'll find it's simple to switch out to what you want, kinda like opening up a Swiss Army Knife picking what you want!



This was my first stump, and I did kinda make a mess ...



But it's easy to clean up!

Yeah. I eventually figured that out and went ahead and ordered the ripper and the quick on. Not sure what their lead times are like these days but I am excited to get the new toys in. I have watched a few vids today on the install process and the ease at which you can swap BH attachments. Ill only have the OEM bucket and the ripper to swap between.

I thought for a half second about the trailer mover but decided it would get no use. I have a RTV and a 3pt trailer hitch attachment that moves all my trailers with ease.

It had been sitting on my shelf for over a year, I have a hitch on my bucket ... I originally bought it thinking I could make a "spike" out of angle iron to push/wiggle into the ground when it was damp to kinda make a slot to plant T-posts in, to save my poor carpal tunnel wrists from the manual driver ... But never got around to it making the spike ... I now have the L5030, so am considering getting a real post pounder to put on the back of that!
