LS backhoe factory thumb

[mark.cash1964]

I'm looking for a thumb for my LB2100 backhoe. Can someone point me in the right direction?

if you need any kioti thhumb measurements feel free to ask

Hi Zmann. Older thread but I am thinking you will see this. I hooked up my backhoe about a month ago and quickly noticed that there was a lot more movement in the whole backhoe when I was digging . I stopped to investigate and low and behold the 4 main bolts holding the hoe onto the subframe had loosened up. I retightened them and all seems well now. If you look at the picture of my backhoe you will see the 2 big bolts on either side just under the step by the stabilizer . I am getting my 300 hour service done in a week or so and asked the guy if he had heard of this and he said that hoe was known to do that and just keep an eye on it and retighten as needed. Locktight next time I think.
Anyway , just something to check on your hoe once in a while.
Cheers.

I have had the same issue on mine. I check them every so often and tighten as needed. They're pretty large, so it is difficult to overtighten them.
