Changing the Bucket on 1970s Backhoe

Finally switching over to a larger bucket on my old backhoe. This is the first time switching the buckets over and I'm not sure if the pins are seized or not!

Just imagine though the possibilities if you could fix tracks to it, it would be a go anywhere 555 and you wouldn't have to worry about getting stuck. Sorry getting carried away, but if there is a retro fit track company that wants to support a hard worker fella, I'm sure the Captain would be very grateful. 😎🤗👍

    I see someone posted a comment about the bucket pins, but the ones on my backhoe (a Kubota) are dry too, as they don't have grease fittings (the only pins on the machine that don't have grease fittings). Seems silly, explanation I got when it was that grease attracts grit, and more grit means more wear than dry metal on metal. The advantage I have now, after using it for 14 years, is that if I see a rattlesnake while digging, I can rattle back at it🤪. Thanks for posting these videos so early, it gives me something to do waiting for daylight. Take care.

    My baby Kubota backhoe has grease fittings… the dealer told me to grease it every four hours and make sure you put enough in to chase the grit out. So, I pump until the grease comes out red… messy but effective.

    Always, spray, and penetrate, let the oil do your work for you. Clean your pins, nothing slides better than a clean pin with lubricant on it. Clean your holes out, lubricate, Soooo much easier. Looks as if you put your snaggle tooth on that bucket, you've got her made. Good luck, and like you always do, have fun. Prime example: don't get mad when things aren't working, change the way your thinking, take a different approach.
