I have a DK45SE that I would like to adapt a Bradco 609 as a subframe install instead of a 3 point (which it currently is). I prefer the 4 point style mounts to the ladder style mounts due to the smaller amount of "stuff" attached to the backhoe while it is not installed. It appears that the only options are Woods and Bradco mounts to base this off of. I have seen a couple of members here have accomplished what I am looking to do, but they are not active any longer, so messages are not being read.
Do any of you happen to have pictures of the woods or bradco mounts installed on the DK45 tractors? I am coming up short in my searches and would like to chose the best option that interferes with the 3 point bars the least while it is in "tractor" mode, and holds the backhoe as close to the rear tires as possible.
Since I will most likely be creating this from scratch I could adjust as necessary, but having a good starting point would be great. Also could the whole assy be produced from 1/2" plate or would thicker be better?
Thanks.
