Was using the backhoe on the BX23 today and heard a crunch.

A rock wedge itself between the back of the bucket and the arm... the arm has a big dent/impression just below the pin bushings from opening the bucket to dump and pinching the rock... still usable... but quite a dent.

Must have been one tough rock and I never saw it coming...
