New Digger Carrier with Lite Flite

Has anybody bought a new Digger Auger Carrier this year and tried it with a Lite Flite?

I read some old posts suggesting the shaft was too big to fit into the blocks but they were coming out with a new block to address that. I wasn’t sure if that came stock on the new carriers or not. I looked through their site and nothing mentioned it, and left them a message but haven’t heard back yet.

Thanks,

I sent you a pm

Hey Joe… send me a PM too… I actually logged on this morning to ask this very question, except I have a pistol bit.

Reach out to digger. They sent me a new cradle cap this year for my rack purchased last year. It fits with the Lite-Flite

My pistol bit fits in my older digger carrier. It is a tight fit but it clamps and stays put, I do add a bunjee strap to the other end.

I 3D printed new caps for my pistol bit. First time I didn’t make it solid enough so it cracked off one of the sides. Make some new ones that are more dense and they work well.

Does anyone know if they ended up releasing the new cradle cap for the Lite Flite? It is nothing an extra bungee can’t fix, but I would like it more secure.

I emailed digger and got new end cap to fit lite flite. and have another digger carrier on the way should be here in a couple of days I will update when I know.

I’ll be curious to hear what you get. Did you have to pay for the lite flite cap?

I seem to remember calling them last year and the cap was an extra purchase but I might not remember correctly. I’m on the fence between ordering the Digger carrier or making myself something.

Well the new digger auger carrier showed up and no it did not have the wider cap so I will have to contact them. Last time it was no charge we will see this time.

Thanks for the feedback Loren. It just so happens I picked up a Digger carrier yesterday at Fleet Farm. It also has the narrower caps.

I just off the phone with them at Digger and they said they are still working on producing the new style caps in volume. They have had some in the past but the cost to produce was too high. He said keep checking back and hopefully they have something available this year.

In the mean time, I’m going to make myself a new cap to get me by for at least now.
