Quick attach plate seemed good enough from my angle too !! 👀 No fabricobble here, just good old weldgineering 😁 Nothing wrong with extra support, you neve know when it will come in handy, but you won't see it, just feel it through the hydraulics 💪💪 And a third function on the front, marvellous!! Most backhoes have 4 in 1 buckets as standard over here, most operators would be lost without one 😵 555 paid for itself already, additions will make her more versatile 😎

The 555 does seem like it was the right machine at the right time. Little sweat equity and you got yourself a pretty versatile machine. I think with as heavy as that extend a hoe is, I doubt that little offset of the bucket is going to be noticeable.

Hi Mike. The quick attach bucket came out real nice. I don't think there is such a thing as too much weld for something that will be subject to having tension put on it from all angles. Also, I think you would have to search a long time to find a backhoe for 5K. Plus, you've freshened up the engine, rebuilt cylinders, replaced hose, etc. Definitely a good investment in my book! -mike
