Read articles →This one's less about specs and more about a specific mechanical task: an owner walks through detaching a backhoe from a BX25D (pin locations, hydraulic disconnect with custom rear remotes) and installing a factory three-point hitch, including the fiddly shaft-and-collar setup. It ends with an informal, non-scientific test of towing a travel trailer with the tractor's hitch. Best for BX owners needing a visual guide to backhoe removal or hitch swaps, not spec-seekers.
Posted by an owner-operator (Killing It Country) demonstrating hands-on modifications and routine maintenance on their own BX25D.
Dip the boom so the bucket touches the ground, relieving pressure on the pins, then slide the pins out once pressure is off, disconnect hydraulics, and drive away.
Slide a shaft through the frame holes with collars on each side, flat spot facing up, then attach the arms with a small pin and clip on each side.
Yes, the owner used a towing bracket on the three-point hitch to move a Forest River Surveyor 243 RBS, though he calls it an informal, non-scientific test.
Use a bracket that keeps the load close to the tractor if there is heavy tongue weight that will not lift; a different setup is needed if the tongue could lift.
