Hi WaxMan,
I almost asked you if there is any way to get the larger backhoe on the 3240. The BH77 is alright on the L3800, but I wish it was a little larger. I think it would definately seem too small on the 3240. The BH77 seems a good fit on the B's. :2cents:

Hi
Yes there is a larger one for the 3240. That's all I want is a small backhoe, thats what I'm used to. I want to keep the machine as compact as I can. Small tires, small backhoe, smaller looking but yet Great cab, HST plus, etc. A custom tractor.
Do you wish your backhoe was larger so you can dig deeper? or more power?

I would like more reach (that would also get me more depth, but I have not needed that yet) and more power. I have not increased my hydraulic pressure relief yet, and hopefully that will help a little. Sounds like you have a good plan on the size you want.

Seeing as the Grand L is really two chassis sizes larger than your 3030, have you given any thought to a JD 3520 cab (or equivalent) ? I hate to say it but.....

Tough call. The Grand L is more tractor in my opinion, closer chassis-wise to the 4X20 Deere. For me it would be the Deere 3520, or better yet , 3720. Its size issue with me..... I live in-town and the Grand L is a little too big. Both excellent tractors.
