    New BX25D, DIY mods

    Kennyd4110, Because I didn't like the looks of them at the time I did this. I put them back far enough, and with the bucket tilted down , I have not bent the lip of the bucket yet. The hooks have come in very handy on a lot of jobs I have done.

    work lights

    I put a 20 LED, 4000 LUM., light bar on top, to light up the front when the FEL is in the up position. Added two 9 LED, 1450 LUM , FLOOD work lights on the rear. Added two 4 LED 750 LUM , SPOT lights on the side, did not like having dark areas when working at night.

    North Idaho Wolfman, Thanks for the feedback. I too don't have the skill that WildFire has, so as you can see, I only did bolt on upgrades to my BX. I did all of these after work , and painted each part to make them look factory installed. It took all night and two weeks to finish this...

    BX25D-Curtis Cab Install (All Steel)

    lreops, The roof tilts up, and the back wall comes off and was designed by Curtis Cab for the Backhoe operations. The doors lift off as well as the back wall. No issues or time needed to take any of the three parts off for long or short term usage.
