Backhoe YM 226D backhoe

Hello everyone
Getting serious about getting a backhoe for my 226d, trying to do some homework. Thinking about something in the 7.5 ft range Does anyone here have a 226d (or simular 17xx,18xx series) with a simular set up and how do you like it? 3Pt or full frame mount?
I am leaning towards a frame mount, but I do have the Yanmar subframe for the loader, not sure if some of the subframe mounts are compatable.The good news is I have access to steel and a welder so I can probably make it work. For those of you that do have a frame mount, where does it attach to on the tractor? Does it attach were the 3pt ift arms do on the tractor?
If anyone has some photo's that would be great.
Thanks Pete

I have a Woods 7500 on my Yanmar 276D with a frame mount. I'll try and get some decent pic's tomorrow and post them for you.

Hey that would be great, just wondering what the attachment point are on the tractor. Would like to come up with some kind of a quick disconnect system so I can still use the 3 point .Thanks in advance for the pictures Poconoman.
Thanks Pete

Since your loader has a subframe, that is accomplishing what a backhoe subframe would do. The manufacture I looked at didn't require a subframe on this size hoe with your tractor.
