Update received today. Ordered 4 May, sent email asking for update 4 June. Today, got an email that my order is in welding and will ship in 1-3 business days. So maybe I'll have it right after a few days of rain so that I can't go out in the pasture and use it on what I wanted it for initially. Eventually........I will piranah-ize some dirt.

Good afternoon,

Currently we are running somewhere in the 4-4.5 week range, from the date you place your order, to get these out the door. Unfortunately, we are behind due to Covid-19 and its impact on us and our suppliers. We will send tracking information as soon as it ships out. Feel free to check back in with me at any time.

I was just wondering if they were still in business. No reply for my status request email.

What's interesting is I have not experienced this kind of delay with any other dealers/suppliers.

Just got an email that my bar shipped. Ordered 4 May.

I bought this tooth bar, no drilling.
Shipped from Washington state near Yakima. , right to the implement retailer in my home town.
$435.00 total cost.
No drilling required clamps on using 1/2" allen studs, they top them with acorn nuts to keep clean.
It's tempered steel also.

Got it this afternoon, put it on, don't have much to try it out on since it's raining. Did try to pry up an exposed root in the yard, no go. Maybe if it ever stops raining I'll get to the hard packed dirt in the pasture. Now on to window shopping stump buckets.

 

[KTuk4J]

This is getting REALLY old and about to request a refund.
Doubtful I'll do any recommending no matter how well it works.
Still no notice of shipping.

Waiting since May 13th.... Worst customer service I've ever come across.

What are the doing still mining and smelting the metals?

Papaj, they do make light weight stump buckets for the BX, not sure how they will perform. I run a heavy duty version on a MX5800 with mixed results. When I fit that stump bucket on my track loader kubota SVL 75-2, it becomes a beast. The light weight stump buckets cost more than a full size 700lb version, I guess it’s about supply and demand. Good look window shopping.
