The 2920 is out of the question! The used 3130 (213 hrs for 23,000.00) has no hydraulic thumb and is not HST. But has more weight and a bigger stronger BH and FEL then the
B26. (New 28700.00).QUOTE]
I disagree the BH90 backhoe is not stronger than the B26s BT820. The
B26 has 4210 lbs. compared to the BH90s 3871 lbs. of Digging Force Using Bucket Cylinder but slightly less on the Dipper Stick Cylinder 2123 lbs. compared to the BH90s 2593 lbs. You are correct on the LA723 loader. Its breakout force at pivot pin is 2605 lbs. loader lift capacity to maximum height at pivot pin is 1870 lbs compared to the
B26 TL500 loaders breakout force at pivot pin is 2344 lbs. loader lift capacity to maximum height at pivot pin is 1300 lbs.
