Are you sure you have enough clearance?
There were spots on my BX22 where I could barely get my fingers between the tires and the fenders or framework. ....

DRankin, you're right, very little room; particularly when backhoe is on, only 1/2 inch clearance.
Green, good website, they have the right size & price, but it will hit backhoe frame. Did you ever build the loader rake we talked about some time ago (see my pictures)? I've been using mine alot and it is absolutely fantastic. I was planning on a design for the 3-point, but find that on the loader bucket, using it pointing down and going backward I can collect enormeous amounts of pine needles and branches, then level the bucket to pick the stuff up. I also can easily pick up logs, rocks, etc because it goes so far underneith them I don't need to push up against things to get them into the bucket. Only problem is bending the tines (they're 3/8 X 3/4 inch cold rolled steel). I hit rocks under the dirt and they bend - but a 5 ft pipe straightens them out easily. ....
