    Bradco Backhoe Thumb

    Well, since Paladin took over Bradco, they no longer make the 485 backhoe. Now they make the 490! It appears by all I can find to be the same unit, just built from a milder steel (80ksi versus 100ksi). What do you think the chances are that the thumb is the same? The few pictures and...

    Mahindra 24/7 website

    Mahindra's 24/7 website has been down at least a year now. You would think they would take a little bit of their advertising dollars and get it back up and running. It worked for the first 6 months I had my tractor and I found it handy on more than one occasion. I guess their reasoning is...

    Dual Wheels
