#44 BXpanded Backhoe Thumb Arrived & Installed On Massey GC1710 Sub Compact Tractor

This is an owner's unboxing and install walkthrough of a BXpanded backhoe thumb on a Massey GC1710, not a demo of the tractor itself. It covers unboxing, comparing the clamp-on thumb to Massey's factory-ear version, mounting it, torquing bolts (with a caution about crushing the stick if overtightened), and checking clearance so the arm doesn't hit at full bucket travel. Useful for GC1710 owners considering this specific thumb attachment.

Posted by an owner-operator (Louisiana Tractorworks & Projects) documenting real add-on installs on their own Massey GC1710.
