One of my many problems is I have only one tractor and 3 pth hoe attached. I am looking for info if available somewhere is a trailer that could be attached somehow so the hoe could dig and unload the bucket in the trailer attached. I want to dig a pond and its too hard on me to place 3-4 buckets in the atv trailer only to shovel by hand it out in a new spot. My dream would be to fill a trailer up drive to new location disconnect the hoe hydraulics and hook up the dump hydraulics then dump and go back to digging.
I cant be the only one .Someone must have ideas.
Please help to save my back from shoveling!!

Instead of re-connecting and dis-connecting your hydro every time why don't you just tilt the trailer with the backhoe and drive off you can save money and probably make faster for of your pond project

You need one of these for moving dirt-

How 'bout a few pix of your specific tractor, WITH hoe attached ? Rear, side, and especially one from a "trailer's eye view" ? Preferably large enough pix to see some details.

I'm sure one of us "mad scientist/welder/tractor sluts" will see SOMETHING that could work :D ... Steve

Looks like you could put a ball or place to pin trailer on your drawbar.The trailer would have to have a long tongue.When traveling,you would probably have to unpin the turnbuckle (brace) and lift the hoe as high as possible.Might work.

Put a ball on the back of the bucket of see if you could mount it on the back of the dipper. Alternatively, you might could build a frame on top of the trailer tongue that you could snag with the bucket teeth, curl the bucket to make it secure, and then it would make it easy to dump the trailer at the other end.

rasor,

I've not built what you're asking for and short of having a loooooooong tounge on the trailer, I'm having a hard time envisioning how you could leave the trailer attached to the back of the tractor/hoe and still jockey the tractor/hoe into position to do the necessary digging whereby you could dump the hoe bucket directly into the trailer. It seems one or the other would always be in the way

Couple of things to consider... you didn't mention if you have a FEL on this tractor... if so, you have a couple of options... one, dig the pond and stack the dirt then use the FEL to load the trailer. Then... two, mount a ball hitch on the FEL and pull/push the trailer to the dump site.

That's the best 2¢ I can come up with.
