How Interchangable is a 763 and a 743 (mainly hydraulics)

[cmb7684]

I have my 743 that has had 90% of the machine rebuilt (motor, hoses, cooling and oil cooler etc.) The drive motor and pump is in trouble but if I rebuild it it would be like new. It has the V1702 motor in it.

I also may be getting a parts machine 763 if I can work out the price on it.

The questions I have would be:
1. Would I be able to take the complete hydraulic system off the 763 and put it on the 743 and then would the 1702 motor be strong enough to run it?
2. If I'm not able to use the hydraulic system off the 763 I thought I saw that the drive motors were the same on the 743 and the 763?
3. Another option would be to complete the 763 using parts off the 743. To do this I would need the roll cage, the lift arms and cylinders. So my wouestion would be do the lifts arms, cage and lift arm cylinders from a 743 fit properly on a 763?

The machines are too different for much of anything to work. The pumps, drive motors and control valve are completely different. Fix up the 763, way nicer machine then a 743.

Well I have a 763 and a 743 already just the 743 isn't running because of the drive and pump issues. I could pull the pump and drive and have a mostly New 743. This 763 I'm talking about would be an additional 763 machine I would buy. While running it needs a few minor things but even after addressing them I would still need to pick up a cage, lift arms and cylinders and then I would only have a 763 just like I have now. So if it isn't interchangeable with my 743 then I may pass on it. Ideally I would buy it and pull the v2203 and put it in my mini x 331 and thensave the rest for parts in my 763 when they go bad. Just have to see what works in my head. Will the lift arms, cage and cylinders for the 743 fit on the 763?

You can re-condition the pump for around 1k on the 743.
Two different machines. If the 763 isn't a G series, the cages will swap over. The arms and cylinders will not, different sizes. Same with the bobtach, different.
Different pumps, different drive motors too. Even the control block is different.
