Backhoe 260 BH for 1025R john deerre

[dfarmerdix]

took Backhoe off for first time so I could use brush hog. Now BH has settled to ground and hydraulic hoses aren't long enough to connect so I can raise it up to install. Any ideas??? I know,,,,, next time brace it something to hold it up in air but what about now????

I've lifted mine with the loader bucket and the chain I use to tie down the tractor when towing. Then I just prop it with some wood or concrete blocks I have laying around.
