Bradco 11HD on a 5530

[EMB5530]

Hello all its been quite a while,

I have recently found a Bradco 11HD and am wondering if anyone has any pics of the subframe for there hoe's on a similar tractor(IE 5530, 6530 etc.)
I am just curious how many places they hook them too in order to not brake the tractor in half.
Was planning on a PTO pump to use w/ it. Manual says 9-14GPM @ 2400psi What is a good brand to look for that wont break the bank also how many gallon tank would be recommended and should I plan on any type of heat control oil I.E. oil cooler, fan etc.
I would really love to see some pics if anyone has the ability to do so, thanks.

Also, this came off a Ford 9030 Bi-Directional Tractor.
I can ask my wife to take some pics of the Backhoe if anyone is interested in seeing it.

Thanks for any help.

Well how bout this. Does anyone on here know if the bolt pattern on the 11HD is the same a a Bradco 511?

Don't know about any bolt pattern, but I have a 511 with the 14gpm PTO pump...you will need a hyd. tank that meets the per minute pump rate. My 511 came with a 15 gal tank. I don't usually have to have the engine run much past 1100 rpm to get all the power from the hoe that I need. I don't have a cooler on the unit. As you may be aware, the 511 is a "4 point" hook up to the subframe. I have to take off the 3 pt hitch to mount the hoe. Can you post a pic of a 11HD? BobG in VA

Question: What did this unit originally come off of....? BobG in VA

As mentioned above, it came from a Ford 9030 Bi-Directional Tractor. I'm not sure if you can tell from the pictures but the hydraulic controls are ran by cables that are able to be put in the tractor itself. I plan to build a swivel seat and instead of getting off the tractor and back onto the hoe attachment I will have the controls right behind the seat for convenience or at least that was the plan!

BobG do you have any pics of your subframe that you would be willing to send.
I am not sure if I will try to build a subframe yet but it would be good to start sketching something out if I go that route.
I am hoping one of the Mahindra dealers on the site has one on hand but he is out until the end of July so I'm waiting to see what he comes up with.

Thanks for the help.
