Backhoe Ford 1520 4WD and Ford 758A Backhoe

[beaglebriar]

If you don't mind me jumping in on here, I am looking to attach a Rhino 75C backhoe to my Ford 1900 (1981), It comes with a supframe but it says it will fit NH TC30, 40 and 50's. I will probaly need to make a bracket or two. But i am stuck as to where the attachments for the front goes and for the rear. Plus the hydraulics I am a little stumped on.

Pictures/ measurements of the backhoe subframe will be a big help. It will also make a difference if you have a loader or not. You should be able to track down a schematic of your hydraulic system and that should help you figure out supply and return. I think you could hook to the lower 3pt pins in the rear and fabricate a couple brackets for the front easy enough. The flat frame rails in the front would probably work great if the subframe is long enough.

I was able to get the specs from rhino, they don't make a subframe for the 1900 but do make one for the 1920.
The 44878 is for the 1920.
The 53894 is for the TC40.

Does anyone have a picture showing the mounting points for the subframe? Especially the rear?

 

[beaglebriar]

The rear mounts on the lower 3pt pins. There's a picture of the front mount on my 1920 in this thread.

Ok, so you remove the 3 point arms to get the subframe on.

Yep. If you look through the pics posted you will see the hooks on my subframe. Remove 3pt arms then you back over it hook up the hyd. lines and lift the subframe into the air using the backhoe bucket and stabilizer then back into those hooks (they slide on the 3pt pins)This lines the holes up on the front mount slide two pins in and you're done.

Okay thanks, is there any way to get some dimensions your subframe? want to see if the 1920 subframe would work on my 1900.

Just went to the barn and took a couple measurements. Here you go - OAL(subframe only) 77", overall width 21.5" ,width between hooks 17.5", outside width of hooks 19.75" ,opening in hook 1"
