sub-frame for 3pt backhoe attachment

[sidelinellc]

I have a 04 Kama 254c i just picked up what i think is a bradco 7MD, unsure do to nothing indicating anything if that makes sense.

Question is, do they make a sub-frame for any of these Chinese units, Kama in particuler or do we just not use a sub-frame as the tractor is beefy enough. I could rig something up but wold prefer not to.

I have never used a 3pt hoe before on a little tractor. My toys have always been the 40 ton type so this is new. Is there a certain angle i need this attached at to reduce the stress to the tractor as well? thanks again.

Maybe there is sub-frame for the Kama 254 and the Chinese LW hoes, for other Chinese tractor there is. But even then maybe you need to modify it to fit the Bradco.

I would recommend a Sub-frame. I received my Gherardi 7,2' for 6 weeks ago, to fit my Mahindra 2525, it was 3 point setup with two extra cat 2 links to make it more sturdy.
Even then I was concerned of all movements and stress on the rear of the tractor. My backhoe has 4850 lbs breakout force. No more playing before I got a sub-frame. So on the 5th day of owning it I started to fabricate my own sub-frame. The difference is like day and night. Now it is very sturdy and wont move at all in its mounts. And I have the backhoe more close to the tractor than with the 3 point.



Here is a great thread on custom sub-frames with a lot of pictures >
