Re: PowerTrac 1845 4 n 1
Charlie,
A weight for the 1845 of 3,000 or so certainly seems reasonable to me. The Extenda Boomer also seems reasonably priced. My local tractor dealer has an old beat up 3ph backhoe sitting out back. I had thought of taking the bucket & first section of boom and welding it to a quick attach plate to do the same thing. But by the time I get done I'll have who knows how much invested in beat up old cylinders and bushings. there is also the issue of contaminating the motor oil Power Trac uses for hydraulics with the old hydraulic fluid in the used cylinders. I don't think I want to go that route.
