eBay/Craigslist Ebay 48 Hoe

[RobS]

Saw this on Ebay. 48 Backhoe with brackets for 4600 tractor. Only used one day. Too bad it's not a #7 /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

The current bid price sounds good. I believe to make it fit a 4410 I would need the Adapter Frame Weldment Plate, Mounting Brackets and Power beyond. That adds up to ~$1200. It has a 24" bucket, would need something smaller, another $500 plus several hundred for shipping. Don't know if there is any warranty left and how that works. So adding $2k on top of the $3k current bid brings it up to $5k. Local dealer is quoting $6700 for my tractor with only one bucket. Is it worth the risk? I suspect the closing price on the hoe will be higher than what it is.

For what it's worth, there's also a model 47 hoe on Ebay as well.
