How does Rankin compare to Woods, Land Pride or another major implement brand. From reading the posts it seems that there are a number of well made implements, can someone name the top five. <br>
I thought it might be helpful to know what I found out about box scrapers with hydralic and manual scarifiers. So far Rankin has hydralic scarifiers. <br>
<br>
Rankin has the 2G2 Series box scrapers with 6 hydralic scarifiers which would allow just about any setting for depth for the scarifiers; scarifiers can be locked. This box scraper is 800 pounds with 2 reversible cutting edges .5 inch X 6 inch. side plates and main beam are 3/8 inch.<br>
<br>
Woods heavy duty R 1060 has a heavy duty box scraper with 3 lock down positions with a handle which allows the operator to "roll" from cutting edge to teeth. 3/8 inch steel. Reinforced Steel A frame<br>
<br>
I thought it was interesting to note how these two are made, I don't have a price yet.

You are right Ken, the Rankin makes a number of hydraulic scanifiers. Acutally they have an impressive number of choices of box scrapers.

Has anybody purchased and used Rankin implements. Are they durable? How do they compare to Land Pride or Woods?

Did you jump or stay in the seat. Should we hope the roll bar protects us? :)

Abbeywoods,

Thanks for the info. I just talked to my JD dealer and he didn't cut and weld. He replaced the top half of the bucket...a costly option. I will see if someone can help me with the situation so I don't have to do this again. I think all should be aware of this costly situation regarding the 4 in 1 bucket. Get a replaceable blade style of 4 in 1 bucket.

Thanks, Murf

I will talk to the JD Dealer about welding a regular backing plate into the bucket face. Any suggestions on who sells the replaceable cutting edges. I want something that will last. I was looking at Woods 4 n 1 buckets and hoping that they might fit my JD bucket. It seems that people would want this setup, so it would be fairly common. It seems the only way to go.

I really appreciate your comments. :)

I have a 4 n 1 bucket on my 4310 E-Hydro. The only problem I have experience is that I wore down the cutting edge and the only solution I am told is to cut off the edge and reweld it. I think someone must sell a bolt on edge or has a better idea.

As for how it works, well I love it. I can lower the bucket over just about anything and grab it and lift. I tore some brush that was well rooted right out of the ground. It would have taken hours to do it by hand. I lowered the bucket, opened the clam shell, grabbed the brush and pulled everything out by the roots. I was working on a fairly nice house and this made the whole process of removing and replanting much quicker in a fairly tight situation.

My neighbor borrowed my tractor and moved large rocks he used to make a waterfall. I don't know how heavy they were, but they looked fairly large.

Also, I hauled large rounds of firewood by opening the clam and simply grabbing them, then lifing them into a pickup. Sure made the whole process much easier. The grip on the item seemed fairly strong.
