stabilizer

Im at 1000hr on my 17 xr4140. It's been a good machine overall. The biggest complaint I have is the stabilizer arms bend and break really easily. I would imagine they are designed to some degree....but im curious if anyone has upgraded them?

Hello all, first post. I own a TYM T25 with a backhoe. I am wondering if anyone covers the outrigger feet for personal protection? Cannot find a single thing online, unless my search words are way off. I have kids running around and I myself have ran into them when they are upright/stowed...
