It would be cheaper to buy a backhoe with a few hundred hours on it. It would work better too.

How large? Digging force requirements? There are some that have reach (Long), but not alot of umph. Here's the mfg of many OEMs. I wouldn't want a large *** on a quick hitch. Should have a subframe mount.

I did find that it was cheaper to just buy a used Case 580 E than buy a nice big new 3 pt hitch setup. The only advantage I see to buying a 3 pt hitch setup is that you don't have another tractor to maintain and store. However, you do have another tractor. For me it worked out better to buy the backhoe. I used it for what I wanted and sold it to a neighbor. Now when I need it again, I just go borrow it. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif My net cost was zero. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
