Price Check Price on a BH90...

jam777 · Sep 25, 2005

I recently took the plunge and purchased an L3130 with the LA723 FEL. Man, what a machine! I've been getting a TON of work done around the house but I think it's time to purchase a backhoe. So after reading a bunch of posts, I've determined that I'm going to buy the BH90 backhoe. The lowest price I could find close to me (southeast MA) was $7300 UN-installed. I currently have no means to transport to any of the dealers myself, so I'm hoping that I could put this thing on myself. Could anybody tell me if this is a good price and if this is an easy DIY job to install?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure on price, But I am also looking to buy a L3130 In New Hampshire. I got a price of 31,600.00 with backhoe , Mid PTO, R4's Filled and soft cab with heat only. If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for the L3130 with just the loader?

The subframe is just a bolt on unit, then installing the hyd lines. The kit may/should have instructions.
If your handy with tools then why not.

I bought it used from some fine folks down in Texas and had it delivered. Unfortunately, I was in-between jobs and couldn't afford anything new. But I think I did pretty good just the same. The total cost including delivery came in just under $17,000. It had a little over two hundred hours on it, which is next to nothing.

It sounds to me like you're getting a great tractor!!! Good job!
