Compact Utility Tractor purchase: Add a backhoe; Yes or No?

   / Compact Utility Tractor purchase: Add a backhoe; Yes or No? #41  
I have a sub-frame and I can easily remove or add the backhoe, but like the previous poster said, I had to remove my arms. I keep telling myself I need a pin rather than a bolt. The bolt (2) that hold on the arms I admit is kind of a pain to get a wrench to remove-whine, whine, I want an easter egg. I would feel better about it if I had a small toolbox- which I've been meaning to do. Anyway I did pick up a 1951 MF TO20 that I now use for just 3point hitching and mowing. I suggest the sub-frame; ammo box and adjustable wrench -it would be cheaper. That said, I still don't regret the backhoe even though I don't use it as often. One February my Shepherd's companion had to be euthanized and it was nice to put him in a place here on the farm where and when I wanted.
