Good day,
I can weld with mig or stick, but I don't know a heck of a lot about design, so I thought someone might be able to provide suggestions. Yes, I have viewed other subframes online, but I need a little more assistance.
I currently own a 2910 New Holland Tractor. I recently purchased an old Arps 728 backhoe. (Please see attached photographs). In reviewing the photos, where would you suggest I attach the subframe that I will build.
1) Tractor photo: There are three possible mounting brackets. Two brackets are shown at the bottom of the rear axle. One bracket is used to mount the swing arm and the other is used to mount the ROP. Then there is the center or middle bracket which would typically connect to a metal bar coming from under the seat of the backhoe attachment.
2) Backhoe photo: The outside brackets are used to mount the swing arms, then there are two other brackets which stick out which I do not know where they would be used. The last main bracket is just under the seat and this normally is connected mid point at the rear of the tractor.
Thanks for your help,
Rick G.
