CT335 with cab

[afoster]

When I purchased my CT335 with cab I thought I had researched everything about this model and asked the dealer all the right questions. I ordered the unit on the thought I might want to put a BobCat backhoe on it at some future time. So the dealer advised me that installing a detente in the rear remotes would be advisable, which I did. Now I find out later, that to install a backhoe attachment on cab models you have to remove the rear window of the cab for it to fit. Kind of makes the cab not all that useful if the rear window isn't there. To bad that isn't made clear in the company's information.
So my question is does anyone know of any 3rd party backhoe attachments that would fit on CT335 with cab and not require you to remove the rear window.

Not sure where you got that info from..
I can tell you that Bobcats look up makes no notes about that.
I have installed several backhoe on cab tractors and never had any issue.
The seat is adjustable and you man need to move it forward a notch or 2 so it doesn't rub.

I do remember when Kioti first came out with the NEW 35 cab tractors, we needed a different subframe which was a little longer than the rops tractor subframe.
I would say your not a fish out of water here, worse case you can use a Kioti subframe on the Bobcat backhoe (direct bolt on) if Bobcats subframe isn't long enough to have the seat clear the back of the cab.

The information came directly from a Bobcat district service manger along with the information how you must remove the window. The local dealer could not find any reference in Bobcat's backhoe literature, except a warning poped up on their service site saying something about rear window removal. So at that point I went directly to Bobcat for confirmation on what that actually meant.

Would anyone have a picture showing a Bobcat backhoe mounted on a CT335 with a cab. I keep getting conflicting answers regarding whether you can actually mount one of these hoes on this model tractor without it interfering with the cab.
Thanks
