I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this in a new tractor. My Brother-in-law purchased a new B2920 from a local dealer a couple years ago. It was a B2920 with a backhoe (kubota), and a grapple attachment they installed. Yesterday I stopped by to help him detach the backhoe for the first time. It seems the dealer only attached one quick connect on one of the hydraulic lines, and screwed the other one in so you'd have to break the line to remove the backhoe. Also the grapple they attached ( I believe an ATI) was bolted onto the bucket with one end being about 5 degrees different from the other end. Not only that, but when the bucket is tilted all the way back, the grapple bar hits the bucket cylinders. The cylinders paint's chipped off there, and it looks like it won't be much longer before the cylinders end up being dented. Has anyone else experienced service like this?
