Backhoe Possible to us Backhoe w/o FEL?

[MarkV]

I guess it can be done but I would not do it. My B21 gets jerked around pretty good when it is using the backhoe hard and I just don't see any way it would not be worse with out the loader stabilizing the front end. At the very least I don't think you would ever be able to use the backhoe to its full capacity.

Good luck with what ever you try. Be sure and let us know how it works out.

Ditto what SPaulsen said. If you have ever HAD to keep the loader up in the air while using the hoe to dig, it's a real pain in the **** and it moves around quite a bit....

i agree with coopers, our 580 is like a bucking bronco with the fel off the ground..... it can be done, but it's hard on you and the machine.
