I picked up this B670 backhoe from a member here for 2k, and worked through last winter to restore it, late spring and about 2k later it's on the B7100. It's truly amazing how muck power this backhoe has. A great old girl that keeps on digging! The rock in front of the loader was it's first project, and it's plucked out bigger ones!

Nice job, looks very clean. Interesting mounting plate- looks like it mounts the hoe a little further back than the stock mount?
The back mount plates are where it is originally mounted in line with the front attachment bars. The hole idea of the hook on the back plates is to back the tractor in with the loader bucket lifting the front end up which hooks the back hoe on, and as I lower the front end it lifts it into place allowing the front arms to slide over the mounted bolts, all I have to do is put a lock washer and nut on, hook up the pump and away I go. Pretty slick way of mounting the hoe.
