I recently had a birthday and to my surprise my girl friend ordered me a Piranha Bar for my bucket. Something I've looked at in the past but never really needed one so hadn't bought one. So she measured the bucket, ordered it and it came 1 1/6" to wide.(measure inside not out ) I was gonna ship it back , then said just fix it and use it. So I cut off the RH support arm, cut off 1 1/6" of the bar, ground everything smooth, tack and welded the support arm in place. Marked the holes, drilled, bolted. Its on now.

Great job on making it work!! You are going to like it! I have had mine on for a couple of years now and it is still very sharp.

When a man has the knowledge, skill and tools to modify thing to make them work, it sure saves a lot of grief!!

Nice job, and the GF will appreciate you making it work. Most things like that, nobody ever knows about it...if you don't tell them.

Happy birthday. You were really smart to fix it as that will pay big dividends later. :D

I dig ditches with mine all of the time. I don't see why you can't work on your driveway with it.
