Picked up TC34

Dealer said that it gets in the way of the back hoe. It does come with one. I have confirmed if thats true or not. I have to mount the new subframe to the hoe.

You are right, it would get in the way. You will just have to figure out a way to add a tool box of some kind. The one that comes with the tractor is nothing great, but it is better than nothing.

Great looking tractor and setup. Congrats

Nice Tractor. What is the purpose of the black bracket that is hanging down near the loader support?

russG · May 1, 2006

That is part of the subframe which the backhoe H frame will connect to.

what kind of backoe are you getting? If yo don't mind, how much for the backhoe?

Also, congratulations on the new machine. Very nice indeed.

I already have a backhoe. I bought it when I got my TC24. I just had to change subframe on the hoe. I'm planing on doing this this week. I'm not sure what I paid for the back hoe a few year back. That was one of the reasons that I even upgraded the tractor because I could reuse the hoe. I would of taken a big hit if i would of traded that in and bought a new one.

Hi Russ,

Anything you don't like about the TC34DA?

It's a new model--did they goof up on anything?

It's a great looking machine--congratulations!

At this point i'm still in lala land. The power is just great. The extra range is great. I put on my backhoe from my TC24 last night. I had to change the subframe on the back hoe. I did notice that when the backhoe is connected I lose my 3 point and remote functions. Also you have to remove the toolbox from the tractor. I'm not sure if this is correct or not. I'm going to call the dealer and make sure. I will need more time to let you know if anything I dont like.
