Buying Advice BX25 BH Thumb?

[JFoy]

Dealer wanted nearly $400 for the BH thumb on BX25D. Seems like a lot for such a thing. Any recommended alternatives?

Thanks

I paid $400. for the manual thumb on my little backhoe several years ago & I don't regret the expense at all. Turned out to be well worth the cost.

Bro-Tek would probably be around $320 or so w/out toplink for the small kubota hoes...

For the 1025R BH260, it was $380 & no regrets - gets a lot of use.

One day of clearing brush and using the thumb to cart it away ... you'll be happy about the purchase.

I also got the Kubota one when i bought the tractor and it is handy. Don't use it a ton but when I need it I am glad I bought it.

A man (Me) in Somerset, Ky has a Kubota thumb for a BX25 and no longer has a BX25. So, the first $300 and pick it up will let you take it home with you. It was on my BX25D, always kept inside garage when not in use, for a year but was never used, it was just on it. No marks, scratches or anything other than like new.
