I got a smile and not the good kind

Post by 77 Ford » Wed Oct 28, 2015 9:54 am

I got a pretty good smile in the bucket of my 450c loader, I would guess a couple of inches in the center. I saw a thread on fixing tractor's with the issue here: http://www.forestryforum.com/board/inde ... ic=73085.0

What is the best way to fix them on a loader?

Thanks!

The chain and jack idea is probably about the best sorry to say. You can also weld a bean underneath with some sort of metal to replace the chains.
