I forgot, it also can be hooked on and off, just locked with 2 screws, no welding at all!

Thx for posting the photos, dubba. I am amazed that the JD factory thumb is so poorly designed. The 110 is a great machine, though out of the league of most of us with non-industrial tractors. That said, I love the new mechanical thumb that I fabricated for my Prairie Dog hoe. Every hoe should have a thumb!

Helix has been selling those thumbs on Ebay for a while. Since you have to weld the brackets onto your dipper stick, make sure the thumb is long enough to reach outside of the teeth of your bucket. If you are going to be picking up rocks, I recommend welding some harder steel onto the thumb teeth. I used small backhoe teeth.

How exactly is the hose for the thumb run, because i just got my 110 Friday and the thumb hose is already wearing against the bolt on the hoe. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Any help is apreciated.

I'm guessing that your having this problem?

I'm having a hard time not flaming JD over this one... I just stopped by my dealer & mentioned the problem & they fixed it under warranty. All they did was make the hose 4" longer.

Exactly my problem, I called the dealer already and they said they would fix it. I will tell them how they fixed yours, I'll get them to put protective sheathing around the line as well. Other than this little glitch, i love this machine. Thanks
