Backhoe Backhoe Dolly

dzmac · Aug 5, 2012

After reading other forums and duplicating some of the other bx dollies, I ended up making the following for my backhoe. The bx designs were only 48" long and after my initial attempt, I realized that I needed approx 12" more in of length. Keeping in mind that I'm not that experienced, it was much simpler once I built the extension. Afterward, it moved around my garage with relative ease. Happy to post more info if needed.

I'm clueless, why go to the trouble of removing it from the subframe? Once you've removed it, how do you retract all of the cylinders? When I remove my 3710 BH, I have to fully extend the boom and dipper.

I have a max 28. Not sure how to answer your question but it quickly installs/uninstalls via a hook that is on the sub frame and 2 pins above it. Since i also have mmm and fel, i don't want to leave it on the whole time since it will only Getty occasional use.

The Max subframe is a newer design and supposed to stay with the tractor.

I see you have it in the corner with your Tonka toys.:laughing: Good job.:thumbsup: My BH only stays off long enough for MX or to put the 3PH arms on and the brush hog. So I always have my toy ready to dig.
