I'm looking at the DK35 to put a backhoe on so I can dig ditches for the new house I am building. I have a lot of ditches to dig and I have a lot of rocks a few of which are about 30 inch diameter. I also have a lot of trees so I wanted to keep that tractor as small as possible for future landscaping purposes. Do you think a KB1550 is enough hoe for my purposes? It looks like the KB2085 is much more capable breakout force and dipperstick force wise. But is the DK35 large enough to handle the KB2085? I would also go with a smaller tractor than the DK35 if it could dig up those rocks. I know you can probably dig up just about anything given enough time even with some of the smallest TLBs
