350 backhoe attachment

Post by speedbear » Tue Apr 09, 2013 9:02 pm

I am contemplating getting a backhoe attachment for my 350 loader. How well do they work vs a rubber tired backhoe? I have a small hobby farm that I could really use one. How available are they? How hard to install. My 350 has a winch mounted on it now.

Unless you have a crawler equipped with the factory hoe mounts, not really worth comsidering in my opinion.

Well, it looks like I won't be doing the backhoe thing. It will be easier/safer/cost effective to buy a used rubber tired hoe. It will be only used as a convenience tool, not something I use everyday. I will be posting another question shortly, in reference to the reverser & how to use it. Thank you gentlemen for yuour advise
