So I'm still new here and I've noticed that the dealer takes off the cross member above the 3pt hitch when adding the backhoe, and it had a loop to secure the top arm. What are others doing to secure this without that cross member?

Thanks jamie

I have the cross member and loop but still use a bungee cord anyway, stops me dropping it down when I run out of hands.

When I put my BH on I take it all off including the top link, and mine is a hydraulic link. Just makes a clean area and no fear of damage anywhere.
