XJ2025 3 PT arms with backhoe

[dwalk19]

I currently have backhoe on, haven't removed it at all yet, but plan to soon. I assume its not possible to have backhoe on and 3pt arms at same time?

I leave my arms on. They are not active after you switch the hoses to run to the backhoe. I just run a tiedown strap to hold them in the up position and out of the way.

Thanks melmark, i see you have the new holland boomer 20, i just bought a 2017 LS xj2025, i've heard before and saw your post that the 2 machines are actually the same, but never really seen much on the web about it, I have a NH dealer 5 miles away, just keeping it in the back of my mind for certain interchangable parts possibly, so would it be the boomer 20 or boomer 25, same as my xj2025, from the pics i see, they do look very similar,

The Boomer 20 and 25 are the identical machines, only difference is the engine size. I think the current model designation you will find at the dealer is a Boomer 24
