[QUOTE="melli, post: 61665, member: 7164"] Wish I could help you...I did come across this link: http://www.excavatorsupply.com/bobcatthumb.htm - - - - The one thing I noticed after watching the corny vid, was the hoses are sure to be ripped off in short order. That can be fixed with 90 elbows on ram, so hoses are tight against ram. Not sure if they installed it wrong in the vid or the ram hydraulic outlets would bind against the bracket...something to consider. A bug-bear of mine with my OEM thumb is the design of thumb. It is ok for med/small boulders, but the thumb cannot get a good purchase on larger boulders given the geometry. Would have preferred a more concave design. That way, I could pick up a bundle of small logs/slash etc... Noticed my thumb has a better geometry than the link I posted above. The price looks good though... [/QUOTE]
