B-3030 lift arms

[BlacknTan]

Has anyone ever investigated the cost of swapping the extendable lift arms from a B-3030 to a B-7800 for the 3PH?

It must becheaper than a Quick-Hitch setup?

Sit down and hold on tight when you price these things!

I did look into doing this kind of swap, wanting to use the B2910 extendable lower arms and to adapt them to my BX...

Would have cost over $400 for parts alone...or was the $500 .

Crazy expensive... There have been past threads on this subject. You might find them with a search...

(edit: somehow this got posted while I was typing...

The B7800 needs the parts from a B2910.
Here is a link to the part #'s.

It ain't, nor is it as good as a QuickHitch (which $200 at your local TSC will get you)

I think I'm going with Pats QH set up my self. My ballast drum is on and off my tractor a lot. It weighs over 800 pounds and if I don't back to it perfect and thread the needle just right it can try your patients. Its fine in the shop on a pallet jack but out on the ground its a pain
