  1. General Tractor Operation and Ownership
    Has anyone come up with a good way to get dirt removed with a backhoe out of a tight area easily. Thought about dropping the bucket and filling that but still seems very inefficient. Especially when I inevitably spill the load reconnecting the bucket once it’s filled. I’m thinking about some...

    I'm trying to get the hydraulics working on a run down 750 with 67 loader and 7 backhoe and don't have a lot of experience. Understand the concepts of hydraulics and basic valves, but don't know how the whole circuit works - for example how PS plays into it (service manual in the mail). When I...

    Hi everyone. Can anyone provide basic, clear instructions on how to reconnect my 260b Backhoe's hydraulics on my 1025r after I installed the Summit Hydraulics kit? I have the one that has 3 rear and 1 front remote Summit kits that works with my Power Beyond.. I'm very new to owning a tractor...

    I am considering adding a Bradco 8MD2 backhoe attachment to my 1998 John Deere 6410 open cap 2WD with a 620 loader. It has 80KG weights in the front and wheel weights on the back. The Bradco Backhoe attachment weighs about 1150lbs and is meant for a 35-65hp tractor. The JD 6410 is about 100HP...

    Hello all, I recently purchased a JD #7 backhoe for my 770 tractor and in getting it set up I learned I need the rear hanger brackets for the backhoe’s crossbar. I have a lot of fabrication skills and resources so decided I’d make my own instead of dropping good money buying them. I’m hoping...

    I made a backhoe dolly for my 270B. I immediately moved the 270B 90 degrees from where I removed it in order to create space. The middle contact point of the three points makes it super stable.

    I am helping my father in law sell his John Deere 270B Backhoe off his 2038R. It has never been used and is in completely new condition. It has been installed on the tractor to confirm everything works. The unit is under a transferrable warranty until 12/16/22. The reason for sale is that he...

    So I was digging out a stump with the bucket curled in while pulling and lifting the boom and this happened. Anyone ever put a pressure relief valve on or a higher tensile strength rod?

    Recently puchased 2006 JD 5425, and wish to buy a subframe mount backhoe. The only BH I have seen that works is the model 49. I am ok with the specs on this BH but would like to consider other brands or JD BHs like the 595. How to get from here to there? I know the Power Beyond unit is...

    Hi All - I currently have a 2017 4052R that I am looking to put a backhoe on. I found a backhoe with subframe mount on a 2017 4044M. Does anyone know if the subframe mount from the 4044M is compatible with the 4052R? Or is there a difference in subframe mounts between the 'M' and 'R' models...

    How do you like the hydraulic thumb on the 2x0B series backhoes? Specifically: the JD sales people tell me the switch on the boom is "either or": either it routes all hydraulic fluid to the bucket, or to the thumb, but not to both simultaneously. However, the TTWT videos I have seen appear...

    I have a 2021 1025R with a power beyond. I use a JD iMatch on my three point hitch. I want to add the following to the back of the tractor: backhoe top & tilt TTWT rear hydraulic kit Here's the question: Does anyone out there have a backhoe, top and tilt, and iMatch on the back of their...

    Has anyone had their boom "float" modified by the dealer without them telling you? I took my 370b in to have the boom cylinder rebuilt under warratny. Before I took it in I could push the boom control all the way forward and it would stay in the "detent" position. After I got it back I now have...

    I added worklights to my 260B. This is a write up on how I did it. I mounted the two worklights to the bracket that mounts the Hydraulic thumb valve in the deer kit. See pictures. I took the power and ground from both lights and twisted them together and put them in a butt connector. I then...

    I have a 485 JD backhoe mounted on a 3520 JD tractor. Since day one the primary boom moves up and down as well as left and right just WAY TOO FAST. I put up with it for a long time assuming operator error but as time passes I'm growing tired of looking like a hurky jerky operator. The other...

    Greetings I just purchased a 2005 4520 open station and I am looking to put a backhoe on it. I have seen a few 48 for sale with mounts for a 4400 on it. Would this fit on my tractor? If not what parts do I need for 48 or 485 to mount Thanks in advance

    Introduction Here is the saga of my backhoe install. It’s pretty long, but I hope that future readers will see that it’s possible to keep these older tractors working if you do the research. Keep in mind when you look at pricing, that the Australian dollar values are roughly double the USD when...

    I’m a newly retired guy. I’m shopping for what is likely to be the last tractor I will buy in this lifetime…so I’m treating myself. My best prospect right now is a new 4052R with a cab and a backhoe. I keep about 15 acres cleared with a bush hog, have landscaping projects planned for the...

    Hi All - Finally settled on a 2038R and feeling really confident after a major back and forth! Now I am faced with the dilemma of the backhoe. I really want to get it and have plenty of need for it, but I can't figure out what's best. I can buy it in the initial order and roll it into the...
