- JD 550c, 443 bobcat, had an old john ford FEL gone
I just bought a 1990 443 bobcat last week to get into my backyard to do a retaining wall and to move about 45 yards of dirt under my house which is why i didnt get a bigger one. Problem is the local rental places and bobcat west only has bobtach attachments or the ones that go behind the stand or walk behind tracked units. I have the pin on style 3 and 4 ft buckets but need an auger bit to do some holes for trees and piers later. I also would like to get use an ditcher later too for the ranch along with the auger. So is there a way to make my little new to me toy more relevant in today world of attachments. I got a screaming deal on the bobcat, and buying a newer s70 at 15k is way out of my budget and renting it just to dig holes instead of an attachment would be a bummer to because A it would be more expensive and B the whole point I bought this thing was to use it as a swiss army knife. I dont mind welding it on if need be.
