[QUOTE="JakeCat, post: 604, member: 73"] I just bought an old used 443 skid loader and have been working on restoring it. My initial glee turned to depression upon finding out how badly the previous owner(s) had treated it. The guy at the Bobcat dealer parts department knows me by voice on the phone now, and always asks how my 'project' is going. I am wondering if anybody has ideas on where I can find a Bob-Tach for a 443? The previous owner welded the Bob-Tach to the bucket, and all the internal parts for the latching pins and lever are gone. The interior of the Bob-Tach is actually filled with concrete and stuff, making any attempt at repairing it a major nightmare. Is it worth trying to repair it? Am I screwed? I want to be able to make/adapt attachments for the machine, since that's one of the great strengths of the whole Bob-Tach idea. What are the differences between the 443's Bob-Tach and the 453 and 463? The Bobcat parts guy says there are some differences but did not elaborate. Any help would be appreciated. :-) [/QUOTE]
