A digger is not a digger with out a Hydraulic Thumb on it ! Cut your thumb off your hand and you have four fingers and cannot pick stuff up ! it is the same in the digger. JHE’s Thumb was made right here in BC by a company called VikingWest, I was just speaking with Mike and he has set me up with a good Stump Pan for the bottom of JHE, it helps with keeping the porcupines out from chewing on things. they’re as bad as a big stump getting in there and wreaking havoc ! I will post a picture when it comes in.
