    Footprint in the garage of a BX23s with bucket and backhoe.

    The overall length of a BX23s is listed at 174.8 mm. That is 14.56' You should be Ok with 15' of storage space length. (Use a cheap ratchet strap for the stabilizers) For best price on a trailer, you might try Tim's RV, 0n Rte #2, in Irving, MA. 1-413-522-3410 They are nice people, (5 star...

    Trailering a L47 TLB

    I have always believed that OTT is about gathering opinions, and offering to assist each other in making informed decisions! It was/is not my intention to offend or upset you, or anyone else. I am very sorry.

    Replacing front tire - need to do the pair?

    How old is the tire? I would probably not replace it, since at a maximum, that tractor would seem to be less than 16 years old, and the rubber should not yet be rotted.

    Trailering a L47 TLB

    I do not know if the "law" is the same on this in all states.... or not. But for me: It is a no brainer! BOTH loader bucket...and hoe bucket ...ARE chained/strapped down!

    Trailering a L47 TLB

    "fit fine" seems kinda subjective. I always trailer my L48 with the hoe down, and chained/strapped to the deck. The use of the boom pin may be Ok, but with the hoe on deck, the overall center of gravity is lower, and IMHO it is a much better/safer tie down configuration. Congratulations on your...

    Kubota b7100 FEL build on a budget

    I have used the spare (poly) rope trick in large conduit numerous times. I would certainly do the rope, but for internet/fibre etc. I would use a separate conduit spaced away from the electric conduit. Electricity, and electronic signals, in the same conduit would seem to not be a particularly...

    I'll put my fuel in in rinsed out plastic milk jugs (not a great idea), before I'll pay $108 for a container! ;)

    Damaged body work

    Any body shop in the Ft. Myers area should be able to repair that hood for you. Be absolutely certain that they get a good paint match though!
