    BH77 and a L3540

    Had someone that I know call me to ask if I wanted to buy a like new BH77 backhoe for my 3540. I beleive that it came off of a smaller tractor and at this time, I dont think that it comes as a complete kit, Just the backhoe itself. What else will I need to buy to make this work?

    3540 no running lights

    I was on my 3540 at night for the first time and noticed that when I turn the lights on, only the head lights come on, no rear lights at all. The turn signals and hazard lights work fine. Is this normal or should I have running lights too? My buddy says his JD 790 has running lights.

    Does anyone have any experience with these valves? I don't know if they are the same or made by different companies. I do like the handle in the video on the EA site. I also like that you can use it for a rear hydro as well. Valve Kits 3rd function auxilliary hydraulic kits for all brands of...

    I thought I wanted a Bobcat but with Bobcat dealers dropping the CT line and now no more CT335, I am a little afraid as I might need a part or service in 10 years.

I'm concerned that Bobcat is getting out of the compact tractor business because the Bobcat stores are dropping the...
