B3030 w/ Woods Backhoe?

BandDcabinet · Nov 30, 2005

I'm not at home so I can't look up the exact price but from memory

B3030, R4s, 2 rear remotes, FEL, 60 in. bucket, BH75, QA, Curtis 6 ft PA plow, 6" Walenstein Chipper, Kubota Forks $29,500.

The 6 in. chipper works great. I have mostly pine and a few oak.

I would recommend the high output alternator option.

I plowed the first snow (6 in.) on Thanksgiving. The FEL-Plow worked great.

For me the B3030 has been a great choice.

I bought a 3030 with 403 FEL and Woods 7500 backhoe, its supposed to be delivered next week. Dealer in Kansas.

Ken,

I would wait for the Woods hoe over the Kubota. You won't be doing too much digging between now and the spring anyways.

Also, if you are going to have the tires filled make sure they fill the tires with Rim-Guard or something other than salt water like they put in mine. Could make the rims rust quicker even though they put in innertubes.

I also PM'd you with some other stuff

So how much does just the hoe end up running? Anyone have a price on them? Would it be a lot different for a 3830?

When I was pricing an L3130/L3430, my dealer quoted me $6780 for a Woods 7500 backhoe with the subframe and independent PTO pump kit. I am not sure if this is a good price or if the price would be different for the L3830.
