I have a 4672 backhoe that I originally had on a B 7100. I changed the top connecting bar to fit my L 3000 and was ready to go. It work just fine but I don't really like all the strain it can put on the lift arms. I have never had anything to break with me but I always keep the arm in mind and try not to put to much of a load on them. I would like to have a 4690 for the extra reach but can't justify getting rid of the one I have for such a small gain. I don't use it that much. Just look at it like this. It's not a 416 CAT backhoe so don't treat it like one and you will be fine.
