With our compact tractors being pretty small (duh), I found it challenging to get the chains and binders where I wanted them. The bucket or rear implement seem to always be just a little in the way. A few years ago, I started using lasso tire straps and haven’t looked back. I found 12’...

You’ll be fine. May not be able to go quite as fast as a fella with 40hp on his PTO, but it’ll do the job for sure.

You’re limited to a 120W load on the OEM circuit back there, so I’d be leery of anything north of 7-8 amps. If that circuit is like the one on my B2650, it is turned on with the headlight switch, I think. I’d need to dig in to confirm, but I’m pretty sure that’s the way it was. My auxiliary...

20’ 10K flat bed for my B2650. I regularly put an implement, like my grader-scraper, at the front, then grab another item for the tractor and load up. With the grader, tractor, and box blade I have about a foot left and still put the ramps up. Loaded as described, my total combo is 7,600#...

Well, friends, I’ve done it again! This time, it was a heavy roller to help smooth out this field after I till it up and seed. I called a relative that does a lot of machine shop work and builds tons of pulleys for industrial companies. I just wanted to ask if he had a source for a piece of...

You’re not alone! That’s me most of the time. Prime example; I’m finally biting the bullet and having my pole barn replaced with a proper shop/ garage that I should have done a decade ago for about a third of the cost…

Not dirty, but maybe a touch guilty. The old guy paid $2100 for it a few years ago. Son listed it for $1800, but I had a budget that I was willing to part with. As nice as it is, the implement wasn’t worth more than $1200 to me. I didn’t expect them to accept it, but his mom was just glad to...

Not sure what I’m going to use it for, but had to jump on the deal. Not a ton of smaller discs hit the used market in my area, and they’re typically all angle iron units that are 95% roached out and missing hardware. No thanks… I found a 0-hour Land Pride DH-1560 less than 60 miles from home...

On a small framed tractor like a BX, it might be worth looking at a diverter valve if you’re only doing this for a box blade. You’re already short on space, so adding a new valve for rear remotes may be a challenge. Not cheap, but definitely recommend Fit Rite Hydraulics. @MtnViewRanch...

We ran my chipper behind the B2650 for 7 hours on Saturday. Filled two 7x14 dump trailers to the brim with chipped pine. I still giggle the whole time I’m using it.

I bought my top link cylinder from @MtnViewRanch and could not be happier. Looks like his lead times are listed at 10 weeks. Worth the wait… Do you have a float position on one of your remotes? If this is new to you, that means can you pull (or push) either of the levers and it pops past a...

I just drive one caster up on a car ramp.

Seems like the vertical dimension is what typically screws us that have QH-10 with the solid top hook.

A buddy has a 2920 that was a little wonky with the 3PH. We tracked it down to the linkage where it is supported by a little eye-bolt looking deal. The linkage rod should slide smoothly through the eye. His didn’t… Under seat, right side of rear end.

Would a Quick Hitch be easier for you to use than strapping or chaining up your 3PH? Might be a nice way to transport your cultivator where you need it, as well as easily drop it when you don’t want it.

In other words, you’ve got a pile of options that will work! Up to you to determine which fits your tractor, style, and pocketbook the best.

If the ONLY thing I ever wanted hydraulic in the rear was a top link, I’d maybe consider a diverter. I’d probably feed it via the FEL curl circuit so I could still easily lift the FEL while using my rear implement that needs top link adjustment. I don’t think I’d want the FEL 3rd function...

I mostly agree with Dan. A diverted to operate the grapple would be frustrating since you’ll lose your tilt & curl function when grappling. I use all 6 of the available motions when I work with mine and losing 1/3 of that would suck, big time. Real rear remotes are ideal if you’ve got plans...

No real reason why you can’t, but if lighting is the biggest concern, it may be wild overkill. My fiberglass canopy is connected to a pair of tube steel spars that project forward from brackets that are simply clamped to the OEM ROPS with large U-bolts and brackets. Much more solid that I’d...

I added two rear remotes on my B2650, which is quite different than what you have for space. It works well and is all out of the way, just below my right butt cheek. Levers come forward right next to the seat. Another idea if you’re not going to be using the rear remotes much, and don’t...
