790 Delivery

I still have to wonder if that is an original setup or someone's well done conversion. I sourced all those parts from different loaders on JD Parts (except for the connecting bar through the boom pivot points... that would have to made since it's dependent on the boom width). Not exactly cheap, so I never got around to doing the conversion.

You would still have to buy the loader end parts, but I made my own attachment hooks for my 300 loader;

Yes, I know. Me too. The fellow had no idea about how unique his machine is. I wish I could have gotten all of the information for everyone here. I know there are a lot of folks who would like the same setup.

For whatever it's worth, it was quite a challenge to get all of the dimensions just right for the Artillian Pin On forks. Thankfully there was a customer within driving distance who was so hot for them that he was willing to spend a couple of days measuring and checking, and then I brought the frame there after tacking it all up to check the final dims, which still needed to be caressed further.

Those pin on loaders have awesome rotational travel (better than the JDQA) but it is very easy for things to interfere. In some places, these forks have about 1/4" of clearance when fully curled up.

No problem. I've learned allot from "Hijack" threads on other posts.. By the way your link http://www.artillian.com/46BackhoeFeet.htm appears to be broken. Check this one out if it's what your referring to "http://www.artillian.com/BackhoeTurfFeet.htm" 46 Backhoe Turf Feet

Wow! all these super clean looking 790's are making me feel a bit embarrassed, I'm definitely going to spend some time this spring doing touch up paint.:ashamed:

I love the loader mounted ammo can...could you give me a bit more insight as to how you mounted it there?

How's this look for a 1992 770 with 2700 hours.?? I love touch up paint.!!
