    rear remotes on Grand L6060HSTC

    i have a bh92 backhoe and a kubota top tilt kit. yes it does rub if you do a full tilt so limit that tilt and it works fine. i havent found a reason to do a full to the stop tilt on any implement.

    Replace BH92 with mini-ex?

    one thing ive learned recently the hardway is when your trenching you need to plan well with the bh92. tractors dont cross trenches the way you can with an excavator

    Greasing your machine....The hate/hate relationship.

    older post. but i dont clean it the excess grease lubricates the outside. i clean the zerk off with a rag or paper towel before greasing. only clean up excess grease if i need to do a repair. yes the outside of my tractor is a greasy mess

    BH77 custom mount opinions.
