I have a T190 and I just picked up an abandoned 709 Backhoe for it. Besides rotten hoses, the 709 works good. Trying to find the mounting brackets for my T190 and not having any luck besides ordering from bobcat. I am looking to Fab my own and trying to find someone who has some that I can get pics and basic dimensions? Anyone out there that can send me some pics?

Sounds like you are doing better with your abandoned backhoe than I did with mine. Cost me $4500 when it was all done. Had to refurbish all the cylinders and replace the master swing knuckle, plus redo all the valves. Not a good deal, I could have bought a much better hoe for that price. My backhoe is not made for a Bobcat. My 751 already had a couple of 2" balls on some backhoe mounts and I just adapted to those. Does the 709 have ball mounts or does it have the "hooks" that attach to some outboard brackets on the Bobcat?

---RCMine has the hook mounts that attach to the loader below the arms. Short of going to the dealer, hevent had any luck on ebay, craigs list, auction sites ect. Thanks for your response!
