Thank you. Been using it a lot the last couple of days, as I move building supplies around to rearrange my pallet racks. I improved the fork function by dropping a bolt through the forks and the bottom of the bucket.(not shown in this video) The backhoe bucket extender is almost never off. It has a couple of benefits, the shovel tip digs well in our soils, it leaves a clean trench bottom and it raises the shovel capacity by 50%, saving time moving soil. The extender works ok for grabbing stuff, but for logs, boulders, moving piles of branches and larger items, I install the two outside bucket teeth for a better grab.
small minds do small things.....BX people think big and have no limits....I do similar things with mine but still only about 130 hours love the work
I enjoy the challenge of doing unusual tasks, when there is a significant benefit. I am not one to just throw money at a problem, I enjoy value.
I have the same model, and have pulled off the same type of work. Added the backwheel spacers and under armor
BXs are bulldogs!

@@valleyc Hope you enjoy it.
Pretty smart fork setup. That backhoe bucket extender looks to help grabbing stuff with the thumb.

I did a similar pallet fork setup on my subcompact. I like the geometry .
