I'm in the process of having a pond put in at a property I purchased last year. Three of the inner banks will be pretty steep and I will need some way of maintaining the grass/brush other than my heavy duty handheld weed wacker or my walk behind weed wacker (bank will be too steep for good...

I decided the simplest route was to modify my existing 16" bucket. I took 1/2" tool steel I had lying around and made some angled pieces that are welded to the bucket cutting edge and the 2 outside teeth. I added a reinforcing gusset on top for durability. This wedges the root against the...

Has anyone found a manufacturer that makes tree grubbers that fit small backhoes? There are some available for excavators but I haven't been able to find one that will fit my BH92. This is an example of what I'm talking about:

I currently have a 2010 B3300SUHST with the attachments shown in my sig. I'm thinking about upgrading to an L3901 HST. The L3901 is the largest that the BH77 can be used on and I really don't want to have to buy a new BH too. I would get the 3901 FEL with the 2 lever (skidsteer) quick attach and...

A couple of weeks ago I was using my backhoe to rip the roots of a tree and push the small tree over. I then turned the tractor around and picked up the felled tree with my FEL forks and hauled it to a brush pile. I dumped the tree, leveled the forks and proceeded to push the pile togeather...

I just ordered the Quick-On bucket attachment conversion and a trenching bucket from BXpanded for my Kubota BH77. Since I already have a ripper tooth and the factory 12" bucket and have the trencher bucket coming, the Quick On should make changing buckets/tools much easier. I may cut the...

I don't know that the lower tines are much longer on the 1060, it's just that the 0660 has a reinforcing tube running across the tines that will limit the amount that the tines will penetrate the ground when you are trying to grub roots or something. 1060 0660

I just left the Kubota dealership where I ordered a Landpride SGC0660 grapple. I also looked at a SGC1060 they had in stock which I may have bought on site except it was set up for SS quick attach but my tractor has the Kubota Quick Attach. While I liked the lower tine design of the SGC10, I...

This is what I did. Works for me. As you can see. It uses a pin to attach and while I could just rotate it and leave it in place I choose to put it in my tounge box where I store my chains and boomers.

I just got my Bro-Tek ripper with the additional trencher attachment which will fit my BH77. I gotta say, maybe I was expecting too much but I'm not really that impressed. It's made from lighter weight material than I would have used if I had fabbed it myself (then again, I'm known for over...

Exactly 3 weeks ago today, I ordered a BH77 backhoe, 4 point mount kit and mechanical thumb for my B3300. My salesman called me this morning to let me know it finally arrived today. Well actually, the mount kit came in a week ago but the rest came in today. He said that the shop will be...

Like the title says, it has been a while since I've been on the forum. Too much work, not enough time... :laughing: What brought me back is the upgrade I'm making to my B3300; I just ordered the BH77. Hopefully it will be here soon so I can put it to use. I remember there were a few issues...

Just want to send my thanks to all veterans and active military too.

I have a '12 Ram 2500 Cummins 4X4 Laramie package. It has 17" aluminum wheels with 265/70-17 Firestone tires rated at 3190 pounds. I haul a slide in camper and with the camper I'm under the both front and rear GAWR and even more so under the max load rating of the tires but I'd still like a...

Is it still winter like where you are? Don't worry, spring is right around the corner, I'm sure. In the mean time, smell the flowers.
