Loaders & Backhoes in Tomball, TX

Sometimes. Our Conroe store handles new and used sales, and the lot changes all the time. So whether a pre-owned loader or backhoe is there today is a question for the store. Call or stop by and see for yourself. A backhoe is usually its own attachment, added to the tractor you already run. A used loader has to match your tractor's mounts and hydraulics, same as a new one. Have your tractor's make and model handy when you ask. Looking a used one over? Check the pins and bushings for play and the cylinders for leaks.

Grease points are the big one. A loader and a backhoe both have pivot pins and cylinders that need grease on a regular basis, not just when something starts to squeak. Check hydraulic hoses and fittings for wear, especially if you're digging in sandy or rocky ground. Pins and bushings wear with use, so look for play at the joints before it turns into a bigger repair. Your owner's manual has the exact grease and service intervals for your machine, and that's the number to go by. If something doesn't feel right, call the shop at our Conroe store to schedule service.

Yes. Our shop works on loaders and backhoes of many brands, along with tractors, implements and mowers. If a cylinder starts leaking or a pin wears loose, call and ask about getting it on the schedule. The parts counter handles wear items like pins, bushings, hoses and fittings, and orders what else you need. Have the make and model ready when you call. Where you bought your tractor and loader doesn't matter. The shop and counter at our Conroe store handle the work that comes after.

It comes down to the work you're doing. A loader moves material: dirt, gravel, hay, fallen limbs. It handles grading and general cleanup around the place. A backhoe digs: post holes, a stock tank, a trench for a water line, or a stump pulled out by the roots. You may want both, since the jobs don't overlap much. A loader fits most brands of tractor and handles everyday chores. A backhoe is more of a project tool. You reach for it less often, but you'll want it when the job calls for digging. If you're not sure which one fits what you're planning, call our Conroe store and talk through the project.

In most cases, yes. A loader or backhoe attachment is built to fit a range of tractor sizes, not just one brand or model year. The main thing is matching the attachment to your tractor's size and hydraulics. A loader or backhoe sized for a bigger tractor won't mount right on a smaller one, and the other way around. Loader and backhoe implements fit most brands of tractor. Bring your tractor's make, model and year when you come to our Conroe store. If you're not sure what you're running, call the store and ask before you buy. That way you walk away with an attachment that actually fits.
