Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum. I have a Bobcat 753 approximate year is 1994-1997. I just purchased a used Bradco 609 Backhoe Attachment. I wanted to see if anyone with a similar Bobcat has put this exact backhoe on their machine. If so, I'm looking for an inexpensive way to attach it to the machine. I'm not prepared to spend another $1200 to attach it to my machine. I think that it is worth noting, that I attempted to make contact with a few members on here with backhoe attachments. But, they don't have email contact listed and there is no other way to reach them. Thanks in advance for your assistance in this matter.

Hi, I have a 609 that I have attached to a 1995 763C.
Mine came with a mount for a Case 1845. I was also surprised what Bradco wanted for a complete mount.
I modified the backhoe side mount and made a set of loader side mounts.
By the way, you are going to find the 609 is quite heavy. When I mount it on my 763, I travel with the boom and stick fully curled and the boom swung all the way to one side to keep the weight as close to the loader as possible.

Ok, so these are the pictures of my Bradco 609 and my Bobcat 753. I should be able to do exactly what Slik did. http://s1113.photobucket.com/albums/k515/stumpbusters/?action=view¤t=IMG_3406.jpg

I fixed the links but get a error message from photobucket.
When you post a link hit the space bar after you paste, then the link will turn blue, meaning its working and when you upload it it should work then.
