I scored this small ARPS backhoe on Craigslist a couple weeks ago and the price (I think) was too good to pass up... $650.
It is a 3 point mount and I want to adapt it to my Mustang 342. I have read other posts on mounting backhoes to skid steers and it seems that just the fast-a-tach mount is not adequate, and there also needs to be a tie in with the loader arms to the upper part of the backhoe attachment.
Any ideas on those upper mounts and where/how they should be located?
Thanks

You will need to fabricate something to mount it to the machine. Older ones use trailer ball and hitches to mount them to the machine.
