I now have an updated picture of the backhoe project. Kent will be adding updated pics to the DIY section soon. Cylinders and valve are now mounted. I am transferring my loader to this tractor from one of my 9020's and decided to paint it before installing it. That's what has been slowing down my progress on the backhoe. I hope to have it done in the next two weeks. Paul[A href='http://www.epho.com/pkjorlie/Backhoe4-1.jpg']http://www.epho.com/pkjorlie/Backhoe4-1.jpg[/a]

Thanks for the comments. The plans along with some cost/time saving improvements will be available in a month or two. As for teeth, yes, I plan to add cutting edge and three teeth to the bucket. I need to get my front end loader attached so I have a pump available to lift the bucket off the floor. Then I'll add teeth and give it a maiden dip in our Wisconsin rocky clay soil. Paul

It's looking very good! Any thoughts on adding teeth to make it easier to break ground, lift rocks against the arm etc.? Peter
