Frame mount a LW-7 BH on a JM 354

kbone1 · Jan 25, 2006

I will try to put my LW-7 backhoe together this weekend and I am formulating what materials I need to fabricate a frame mount system for this backhoe to fit on my JM 354. Would ¼ inch plate be strong enough and hold up well to the stresses of a LW-7 backhoe on a JM 354? I will not build the frame mount yet but I figured that while I am assembling the LW-7 it would give me a good idea of how I was going to build the mount. If anyone has any pics, drawings, or tips on what they did, I sure would appreciate them.
Thanks

JUST FINISHED CHANGING OUT A LW-06 FROM THREE POINT TO FRAME MOUNT I HAVE SOME PICTURES IF THAT WILL HELP ANY. I USED 2"X4" TUBING FROM THE LOADER ARMS BACK.

I have ordered a LW-7 3 point mount backhoe to put on a Kama 554 but I am toying with the idea of fabricating a frame mount. I have a koyker FEL. Please post any pictures of the frame mounts you have.
Thanks

Have you run the lw-7 on your machine yet?
If so are you using a pto pump of the rear remotes?
Are you happy with the Backhoe?
I'm considering one for my KM 454.
Thanks

I have not even received my back hoe yet. Chip ordered it and it should be in Feb. sometime.
I plan on mounting it on the three point first to look at performance like that.
It is supposed to hook up to the remotes.
