Great video! just let me add with the backhoe sub frame, you leave out the 3/4" spacers on the retainer sleeves and use the m12x60 grade 8 bolts that come with the 3-point hitch kit. I didn't remove the tire, just put the bar in the sleeves before I put the bolts in. Is there a left and right side bar or are the equal? mine seem cocked.
Need to leave out the 3/4" spacers on the swing arm bar retainer sleeves and you also need to remove the seat support brackets that support the seat after you swing it around to operate the backhoe.
I only have the backhoe but I've been thinking about adding some 3pt attachments. Does the tire need removed or can it be left on? And if it does need removed is that only for the initial installation?
It changes my mind on getting an 25S because if you have to take off the tire every time you want to use the other implements becomes a hassle. Things should be easier when paying so much for a tractor. On JD and Kubota you do not have to do this.
Hoo Boy! This is gonna take some practice!
could use more of the 3 point hitch wtf

True! We will do some research on your question.

Do you need to remove frame for the backhoe to add the hitch linkage?
No. The subframe stays on the tractor.
I had the same issue. You just don't include the spacer part of the retainer sleeve.
I bought a tractor from you guys. I hope this works in reverse.
If you run into any issues don't hesitate to give us a call.

Yes, it needs to be removed the first time. If you leave the center piece on, it should be good after that.
I had to get longer bolts to use the spaces. The bolts are metric.

Like the videos....but you need a camera that can focus. 🙂
Really?!? Next step, "install your hardware"
How about going through the steps of installing the hardware.
I come here installing a 3 point hitch for the first time of a 25s after taking backhoe off. Bought from brim. What a terrible video. Helped zero
