Improved mouthpiece mounting for a bridle bit including flat, elongated cheek pieces adapted to lie along the opposite cheeks of a horse or like animal and having a mouthpiece disposed transversely therebetween. A pin on each end of the mouthpiece is received within a T-shaped opening on each cheek piece, and rigid U-shaped clips engage the pins within these openings and connect opposite ends of the mouthpiece to the cheek pieces thereby permitting interchange of mouthpieces in the bridle bit. The clips maintain the pins in general alignment with the longitudinal axis of each cheek piece and also permit partial rotation of each cheek piece about the longitudinal axis of each pin. Means are provided for releasably joining the rigid clips to the cheek pieces.
