BXpanded quick attach on BH77 backhoe. Who is using it?

[Nicfin36]

I would like to eventually put the BXpanded quick attach kit on my backhoe. One member said there were some technical problems with his. I have held off, in part, because of that. For the few that do have it on a BH77, what do you think? Any problems? Regrets purchasing?

Also, I have the factory thumb.

I have one on my BH77. I haven't had any problems with it so far. I know that Martin from DIY My Way has had some problems. I can't remember his user ID on OTT, but I'm sure he will comment on this.

I purchased one in Spring of '19 and couldn't be more pleased. Functions perfectly. I did lose a lynch pin once while digging in some dense roots with the ripper tooth on. I noticed it before the main pin had dislodged enough to cause any problems. Now I keep a close eye on them while digging.

Cool. Two responses, both positive. I may go ahead and bit the bullet before long.

I had one on my BX23S and never an issue, it made life easy when swapping buckets & the ripper. Made very strong too.
