[QUOTE="KarlB, post: 58840, member: 6581"] The balls are on large angle iron that bolt to the frame. No idea if the width matches. I would (on a level site) hookup the 909 using the Bobtach, tilt it back as far as you can (connect the aux hydraulics and use the bucket to push the backhoe back, as the Bobtach cannot often tilt it back enough. The hoe should be level (at the bottom of the arms that connect the trailer balls); hence why starting on a level site is easier. Look where they are and then see what you can mount the trailer balls to. Standard 2" trailer balls. If you want to see mounts, here are combo mounts for a 909 and 709. Not sure what they fit onto, perhaps a 753/763. YMMV.

Backhoes are open centre/continuous flow, so you'll drain all your fluid before you have moved anything. You could disconnect all hoses and try to drain out the oil, but really, is it worth it, and will you really get it out anyway? ...karl [/QUOTE]
