B7800 with bradco 408?

[rlcokc]

Anyone have the Bradco 408 backhoe mounted on B7800? Thinking about mounitng with subframe--subframe interfere or extremely difficult to mount? Anyone have problems with 408? Likes or dislikes? My use will be just around property--nothing too heavy--hardest probably taking out a few trees.

Have a Bradco 408W on a L3130. The L3130 could take a bigger backhoe but not sure how the 408 will fit on the B series, could be on the big side.

You are correct--checked with Bradco and was told the 408 was too big--would accept the bradco 365.

I realize its different but I just put a woods bh80x on a 7800 that is the biggest they said it digs an 8 foot hole with subframe np

7800DUDE, would you have a pic of that? That does sound a bit large for the B7800 so glad you got the 4PT frame mount!!

I've got a BH80X on a B3030...... though I'd probably recommend a BH70X.

Thanks for responses and discussion. Sounds as if for the B7800 the consensus is the BH75 or Woods BH80X both with subframe. If anyone else has suggestions or comments I would welcome them. Never had a backhoe and don't want to waste money on one that harms tractor or won't fit properly. I've decided based upon discussion on other threads I don't want a 3 point altho many say they work fine.
