Aftermarket backhoe

[Bumble]

If you own one, or priced one, what were your options? I'm leaning towards subframe mount, because of the tractors I am considering (45hp range),
around 8', or 9', Woods seems to popular around here, Bush Hog as well, any others I should look at? Will be buying with a new tractor, and want opinions (which is what I'll take them as), and pricing, if you have bought in the past year or so, for comparison.

I know a dealer that has some of these Korean Back Hoes on the ground in Wa. if you have any interest in them. The BH7600 is rated up to 45hp.

I bought the Bushhog 750 last year for my TC30. It came with the subframe, rear remote kit, and 2 buckets, 12 and 18 inch for right around $6,400.00. It's gotten quite the work out and has been problem free. I have a few pictures of it in my gallery.

Consider the OEM backhoe of course. Many of them are quite good and you'll have no warranty arguments if you have a problem. Branson uses Ameriquip, Mahindra uses KMW and Bradco. Not sure about other tractor brands.

Jim,

I've had my tractor for just over 2 years now. No issues at all with it. Most of the hours on it are backhoe work and it's been great. I priced out the New Holland backhoe but it ran around $800.00 more for comparable specs.
