Well with lots of help my members on the list and my local Kubota dealer I finally got my Bradco 609 mounted and working on my tractor. The weather was perfect for a "Test Dig" today. My son and I had fun digging in the sand box!! :)

Then my Dad wanted to try pushing back some brush along the yard.

I am so jealous /w3tcompact/icons/love.gif. I am curious what difference if any the BH makes on tractor feel while driving?

Congratulations on your new toy/tool.

Ahh the joys of toys..........

Dig a hole, fill it back up again

Drill a hole, weld it back up again

Looks like fun (Especially for someone without even a FEL!)

Cheers

ecard, The BH made a big difference in the feel of the tractor. The backend feels "glued" to the ground. I haven't done any real FEL work yet with the BH on but I'm sure the back end won't come off the ground now! The ride is much smother and not as bouncy when traveling. You can feel a little sway side to side from the boom throwing it's weight around while driving but nothing that bad. All in all feels great.
