LS G3033H attachments inputs wanted - post digger & scraper.

[CharlesSnyder]

I just bought a low hour LS G3033H (26 PTO HP, 540rpm), Cat. 1 3 pt. hitch. First tractor for me. I am now looking for a post hole digger and a bucket scraper. My initial search suggests a Danuser G20-40 PTO auger is a good one and Tractor Sply units are "problematic". My use is for few acre general maintenance & pasture fence replacement, 1-2 ft. deep packed dirt (not rocky) digging, not heavy lifting/construction or clearing. I welcome your experienced inputs for manufacturer & model, even dealer recommendation. I am in San Jose, California, 95120. Thanks in advance!!

Two days of research (a fire hose of informatipn!) and I feel much more "book" educated on my quest for post hole digger and box scraper manufacturers & models. Thanks to many pre-existing threads/posts on this basic topic. I really appreciate the practicality in this forum, not wild opinions, biases & whining!

I'm not sure about the other OEM for TSC, but the Speeco unit I have is great. Hit lots of rocks in it and stuff. It's a cross specifically made for TSC which is a hybrid of their light-duty and heavy-duty models or something, so you won't find it Speeco-branded as-is. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it for your duties.

What part of San Jose are you in that you have that kind of land? I used to live just off 87, then moved right to the Santa Clara/San Jose border on El Camino.

Hi ishiboo,
Thanks! I'm down way Almaden Expressway, just into "County" country, near Calero Reservoir & Connibar Golf Course. I have 3.55 acres, of which 2.5 is dirt/weeds. I'll be putting in new fence (post digging). Also going to grade some of it for radio control car race track. Also going to fix an area for mini horse, kini boat, chickens. So, most playing around. ����. I know the areas you lived. I lived near Lawrence & El camino, then out to Saratoga. Time to escape the "city".
