I recently bought a used Ford 758 BH. She was worked hard and put up wet. I plan to work on it and get it back to good condition.
I don't know very much about BHs. I saw it a few months ago for $1200. It was mounted on a Ford 600? tractor. I did see it operate. The issue is the stabilizers go down but, not enough to lift the rear of the tractor. The attempt at diggng was hampered by the fact it wanted to drag the tractor.
The valves that operates the stablizers has been replaced with a remote set. In addition, they had to install a on/off valve that made the sablizers work or the bucket control. But not both. OK, this is not great but, turning the valve to operate the stablizers is not so bad......if it worked.
It has a new Prince pump that mounts on the PTO shaft. Can't determine the size, name plate is destroyed for Model number area??????IAC, only SS number 293239. It's about 7" wide 10" tall.
First attachment is the Ford BH 758 BH from a distance.
