Bobcat 843 hooked to 811 Backhoe?

[musclesbenz]

Has anyone hooked a 811 backhoe to a 843 Bobcat? I picked up a 811 backhoe with S/N 630003084 and I own an 843 with S/N 503750093. The hoe was hooked to a 863 prior to my purchasing, and the brackets from that setup don't appear to work with my 843 due to reduced clearances. Can anyone help me?

I just received the following from Bobcat:

The 843 is compatible with the 811 backhoe. The mount part numbers are 6538152 & 6538146.

Does anyone have these mounts for sale? Or at minimum have pictures of the mounts?

I also found this in the Loader Attachments Price Pages Bobcat put out. It unfortunately does not give the Mounting Kit Part number. But it does make sense to me that tracks wouldn't fit between the backhoe mounting arm and the tire.

There are some 811 pictures in here - they may include the mount that you need.

According to the following website:
https://ru.777parts.com/bobcat/Backhoe/s4494.html

The kit number is 6538145. This would include mounting instructions & etc.
This site also confirms that the mount part numbers are 6538152 & 6538146 (as previously stated, I got these numbers direct from Bobcat (confirmed at two different sources).

Got the installation instructions from my local bobcat dealer.

Also, I finally figured out where the illustrated parts list for the 811 backhoe reside on the Bobcat website (and the 8811 too):

Go to: https://partscatalog.bobcat.com/
Click "Select Model"
Type "Backhoe" and press enter
Click "Loader"
Scroll down and click "811/8811 Backhoe

For anyone that finds this thread, according to my local bobcat dealer, there is a company that sells the 843 mounting brackets for the 811 backhoe, but I had to buy them through my local Bobcat Dealership. Cost was Right side bracket $468.90, left side bracket
$474.90 plus shipping. So probably ~$1150 including shipping.

So I ended up buying the brackets directly through LIPPERT ENTERPRISES out of Ashland, Ohio. Total price for the two brackets including shipping was $860. I also spent an extra $30 for the 6537892 spacer that goes under the arm to hold it up. It's measurements are 1/2"x2"x5.6" for anyone wondering. I've installed everything and the brackets work great.

In case anyone was wondering in the future, I just spoke with Lippert Enterprises, and unfortunately they no longer have any - but he said they did at one time, so was good advice at the time.
