looking for back hoe

[raindog]

I'm a new subscriber and have really enjoyed browsing the input. I have a 2002 NH tc35 with just 120 hrs. Just bought it this week. looking for a back hoe to do much on 160 rough acres in okla. found a Taylor-Way mod. 766 for $3800.00 that should fit (seller sez). Don't know much at all about BHs.

Most here at the forum will tell you to go with a sub frame mount backhoe and I agree with them. They are strong, less change of damaging the tractor. 3 point backhoes are just weak when it comes to how they mount.

Enjoy that TC35! I know I sure enjoy mine.

I have a 757c on a subframe. Much more stable this way and no chance of braking the tractor in half.

I researched this before I put one on my TC45. Not only are you less likely to damage your tractor with a backhoe with a sub frame, it will not void your warranty. I read where someone used an aftermarket 3-point backhoe on a New Holland and cracked the frame. New Holland will not cover this type of damage. That is why they design theirs with a sub frame. I am very happy with my New Holland 758C. I have used it countless times and it is very stable. Paul
