I am ignorant about different backhoes and ways they mount to tractors. (Never used one before).
I have a Kubota l5460 with a regular 3pt hitch (and 3 rear remotes with top and tilt).
I am wanting to buy a backhoe soon for ongoing projects I have. Maybe a bh92?
Can someone explain to me the options I might have in mounting a backhoe to my tractor? Do I use the 3 pt hitch or take it off with different brackets?
How does the bh92 connect hydraulically? How about a hydraulic thumb?
Any suggestion on a standard size of leg, bucket or any other choice I need to make?
Or if you could point to me threads discussing this I would appreciate it as I have had a problem finding much info this morning.
I want to understand the options better before I go and talk to a dealer. At this point I am not in a position to make an intelligent choice and it's all expensive enough I want to get it right the first time.
Thanks, Bill
