Anyone have any input on a bobcat 8811 backhoe , I am looking to see how stron they are and if there is any problems with them. I found one used and considering buying it , I am guessing it has 10~15 hours on it tops! both buckets the owner has still have sharp cutting edges and most of the factory paint is still on the bucket . the boom and dipper still have nice pain , the pins and bushing show no signs or wear . Crome shafts have a few little rust spots mostly surface but you can feel a nick in the crome. I have also looked at a bradco 609 but it didnt seam as big , if you had to chose what would you get used both in very good shape . Keep in mind my CTL is a over 10,000 lbs so weight isnt a problem.
