Backhoe NEW WOODS BH-6000

[ScottyChip]

Well I picked up my new Woods BH-6000 backhoe with 12" bucket and 4 point sub-frame kit this morning from the dock of the shipping company. Will have to wait a few weeks to start the install on my Kubota B7510 because we still have winter here. I have a couple of snaps to show her off, she is red, but I don't mind. It was a dealer close out of older stock, so a little rust on the hoe but the sub-frame is new.

Thanks to everyone here for the many threads I have read on buying, installing and using backhoes. As always, I have found a wealth of invaluable information and have already reached out for feedback about making this purchase.

The job list has already started and I am looking forward to a busy spring and summer, oh, and by the way don't let my wife know that I am really having fun digging all those post holes, drainage ditches, garden plots, etc. and spending time on the tractor. I've told her it is going to be time consuming and difficult, ha ha.

Enjoy the pictures, I have included one of the barn with our horse in the yard to show the snow we still have, but the good news is today it is raining pretty good and the temperature is above 0[SUP]0[/SUP]C, or 32 F, and expected to be there for the next week so I think spring has finally broke and the warmer weather is coming.

Nice looking rig, post some pics when you get it installed.

I'm jealous. I hope to get one someday. Hope you get it up and running soon so those of us without can dig vicariously through you.

I have a B7510 and an older Woods BH6500 sub frame backhoe and love it.

Re: Update Installed Woods BH-6000 on B7510

Finished the installation of my new woods BH-6000 on my Kubota B-7510 last weekend and took it out for a test dig. Here are a couple of pictures of the finished product. So far, it looks like it will be very useful.

Looks great! You will love using it. I have the next size up on my B-7610. I am always amazed at all of the things I use it for.
Down the road, think about a Thumb. That really make it useful!

Thanks, another friend recommended the thumb as well. Thinking now that I should have just ordered it with the hoe, oh well maybe something the jolly old fellow came bring me later in the year.
