Overview

This video addresses a very specific puzzle: where does the factory toolbox actually mount on a 1025R equipped with a backhoe, and what do you do when the proper brackets weren't installed? Tim walks through his workaround step by step, drilling one extra hole in the mount bracket, repositioning the box forward, and hardware choices, while admitting some uncertainty remains. Most useful for 1025R backhoe owners dealing with the same missing-bracket mystery.
