Turn your skid steer into a powerful digging machine with the CID X-Treme Stiff Arm Backhoe. Built for digging ditches, removing stumps, excavating footings, and tackling demanding property or jobsite projects, this rigid backhoe attachment delivers serious digging power without requiring a dedicated excavator.
The American-made 3-inch by 16-inch hydraulic cylinder produces up to 14,000 lb of ripping force, while the 7-foot digging depth gives operators the reach needed for drainage work, utility trenches, foundations, and stump removal. Add the optional mechanical thumb to handle logs, rocks, concrete chunks, and other bulky material.
