I have both the Ratchet Rake and the Pirahna TB. My experience is get the PTB from BXpanded or the new similiar version from Everything Attachments. I think the EA is a heavier steel but not really sure. I had a PTB on a BX for 4 years and it was still in good shape after about 600 hours on the tractor or guessing 3-400 of loader work. I used it to clear a driveway and put in a yard. It doesn***8217;t work quite as well as the RR for total clearing, but it does a great job in ripping out saplings and brush. I just put one on my 2650 and was able to cut through roots and pop out a 6***8221; ish tree stump. The RR would not have worked for that. If you can swing both you will use the PTB all the time and occasionally use the RR, it really worked nice to create a seed bed for the yard after spreading black dirt. Also the RR will fit on over the PTB so never a need to remove. If only one I would go with the tooth bar, definitely get either BXPanded or EA as a regular tooth bar you need to remove for back dragging and you don***8217;t with the PTB & assume not with the EA version. Good luck and enjoy the 2601, nice tractor and huge time savor.
