Backhoe B2620 backhoe hydraulics

[628pm]

I'm looking at purchasing a backhoe attachment for my 2620. Any recommendations? How do you attach the hydraulics? Does that usually come with the attachment or should I start looking at getting the hydraulics issue done before proceeding any further with looking for a backhoe? I read some about the bh65 kubota attachment? Any help would be appreciated.

The hydraulics can come either pto pump driven(aftermarket or 3rd party),. but if you go OEM like the BH65 as you mentioned,.. there will be a hydraulic kit included that you just plumb in to the current 3pt hydraulics.

Thanks, it looks like I will go with either the kubota bh65 or a woods. The hardest part is turning loose on the money. Wife even believes we will use it alot. Just got 16 acres of ground that will require alot of cleaning up, need to have a new water line put in and lots of small bushes and trees to dig out. Retirement is round the corner for me, so this will keep me busy.

Just in case you were wondering, the BH65 also comes with a new seat bracket that allows your seat to spin around for hoe use. As well as a bracket to relocate the under seat tool box. Also, even though I bought mine when I bought the tractor, the BH65 cost me $5,200. I think you will really enjoy the BH65, and you'll be very please at the new loader capabilities you will have with the massive rear ballast of the BH65 hanging out there.

I like the closeness of the mount of the Kubota backhoe as it reduces the stress to the tractor chassis.. Other makes often have difficulty loading on trailers do to the pivot hitting the ground while loading and unloading.
Many after market manufacturers say if the main manufacturer won't warrantee their attachment they will cover it! Great! So it fails because of it the year after the warrantee is gone!!!!!
