[QUOTE="Katoh, post: 78036, member: 7720"] G'Day Friends Following my last post on trying to find a quick attach coupler from my 453 to regular BobTach has lead me to this path, well sort of to this path. I have been looking for attachments and have found the ones I want at the price I wont but, "for some reason there is always a but", some of attachments do not have a certain facility that I require.
