Backhoe BH92 Backhoe on my L4240

Also, is that green trailer a 16’?

Nope- 20'

If trailering far, or frequently, and wanted to put the hoe down on the bed you need close to 24 ft. We have a 26 ft and I use most of it when moving tractor with BH.

Regarding a ripper for the BH92, does anyone make one that works with quick attach?

Wow, the hoe really ads some length. I have a 20’ as well. I was hoping to be able to strap an additional implement up front. (Not sure what, Just something

Any photos in what you mean? Also, how do you strap it down?

On the legal end, does it have to be down, or is it legal to haul in both positions ?

Just lower the boom to get the bucket on the trailer deck. For Hwy travel I chain the tractor (4 chains) and heavy straps across both buckets.

Are the two straps in the pic the only ties downs your using?

As for the attachments, they are suppose to be lowered and also secured, to be “legal” .

I also have a 20’ trailer I use sometimes and it takes every inch just for the TLB combination. I can just get the backhoe bucket to set on the rear of the deck with the boom down and dipper all the way in. I then strap the bucket down. I ended up installing fork pockets on the front of my trailer so I can haul my pallet forks at the same time.

Really nice setup you should really enjoy it, even if you only use it now and then it’s nice knowing it’s setting there when the need arises.

Here is a pic I found of a full size hoe but has the rear bucket lowered and strapped down like I was talking about.
