anyone have any info on the older backhoes with the newer m series machines, or even say an s185 or something. i eventually want to upgrade my bobcat but would like to keep that backhoe. i wouldnt mind fabbing up some brackets for the machine I use the backhoe a few times a year. I'm gonna get a mini eventually but the old 907 backhoe is so smal and perfect for low headroom situations.

I'd like to hear if you come up with anything too, i'd like to fit one to my S150.
It will take some thought, but could be done

its funny, i never realized how perfect this 907 is. it's compact. it's small. you can still see while its on the machine. i loaded a friend of mines newer 709 backhoe into the back of a truck the other day, its HUGE. i couldnt even see the truck i was trying to load it onto. i fixed the crazy swing, now it's perfect to just keep around the shop until i need it. anything bigger you should be using a mini anyways
