The Amerequip hoe sub frame mounts to the bolts that normally support the 3pt lift arms and at the front hooks over a cross member of the loader's sub-frame.
You bring up a good point, REG. When practical, it makes a lot of
sense to tie a backhoe subframe into the loader subframe. This applies
to custom subframes or ones that come from the hoe vendor. The
B21's "mainframe" above is for the hoe AND the loader.
Also, TBN members will notice that some tractor makers, like Kubota,
put their FEL subframes under the the tractor, while others, like JD,
put the FEL subframe mostly above the tractor's main structure. I
know I am generalizing, but the former type allows you to integrate
the two subframes together. Woods usually requires a tractor mounting
one of their hoes to have the factory FEL or a Woods FEL. Use of
other aftermarket FELs may interfere with or not connect to the Woods
subframe.
The photo is of a Grand L 40 with the BH90 subframe and how it is
attached to the FEL subframe.
