Traded my Kioti ck35 for a dk40

[Illini22]

And had the second remote added, along with the trailer plug (for no reason, lol). My buddy welded on a couple bucket hooks and also welded a trailer hitch inside the top of the bucket. On my ck he welded it on top of the bucket, it was a bit to high. He also welded a 2" rectangular tube on the topside of bucket for strength.

Congrats on the new machine! I am trying to be patient as I await the arrival of my New DK40 They had to order the backhoe so I have to wait till it shows up before delivery.

Was intending on buying the CK last year. Great value but after driving the DK it was a no brainer to bump my budget up a little and go with the DK. Absolutely the right choice. You had a really good value in the CK, now you have value AND beast.

Thanks for the kind words. Sorry about the crooked pics!
Did your buckets come with 2 holes drilled in it on each side? And not wear a toothbar would go.if you look at one of my pics, u can see the holes I'm talking about. In another pic, my 5' toothbar has been cut in 2 pieces, my buddy is going to add a 12" piece of steel ( and one tooth) so it will work on the bucket of the dk.
Your right this machine is a beast, quite a bit larger than the ck series.

I mean "where" the toothbar would go.

 

[murphy1244]

The holes are already on the Bucket on mine.

I'm not sure what would attatch to these pre drilled holes. Their quite a bit higher and further back than where a toothbar would attatch.
