Brad, My neighbor just bought a BX23 with add-on loader and hoe. It comes with a 1/4 yard front bucket. His is rated around 700 pounds. He can't lift a full bucket of dirt.
His backhoe is a wimp too.
What I didn't like about his set up is that to use the hoe, you have to get off tractor, walk around tractor and climp on hoe to get to another seat. Then to move hoe, you get off seat, walk around tractor and climb on tractor.
For me, that's a deal breaker. If I can't pull on a lever, spin my seat around to get to the hoe's controls, I don't want it.
Before you buy any loader, see if it can lift, how fast it lifts and how high it will lift. If you have a saw mill, you may be wanting to lift logs with loader or pick up logs with the hoe.
I would find someone who has the tractor you want to buy and test it before you buy it. George
