JCB's Most Loved (And HATED) Backhoe Loaders

In 1945, Joseph Cyril Bamford bought a second-hand welder for one British pound. Eighty years later, his company has produced one million backhoe loaders, and the word "JCB" has become synonymous with diggers across the world. This is the complete story of the JCB 3CX and 4CX - the machines that defined what a backhoe loader should be. From a tiny garage in Uttoxeter to factories on four continents, from the first Mark I in 1953 to the DualDrive-equipped models of 2024, we trace every generation of these iconic machines. We cover the technical evolution across five generations, including the shift from Leyland and Perkins engines to JCB's own Ecomax powerplants. We explore the 4CX's revolutionary 4x4x4 all-wheel steering system, the TorqueLock fuel-saving technology, and the latest DualDrive feature that lets operators drive while facing backward.
