You must buy the GC2310 to get the backhoe. Main reason being that the seat suspension, 3 pt lift arms and ROPS are different to accomodate the backhoe.

I can't believe I broke my own golden rule. :(
"Better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are an idiot than to open your mouth and prove them right." I must have really been wound up Monday when I made those posts asking such silly questions. :)

On the upside, I made a deal today. I went with the TC30 gear drive with Woods 1008 loader. I thought long and hard about making them exchange the 1008 for a 1012 loader, but they were seemingly at their limit on bargaining. I know the 1008 doesn't have the capacity of the 1012, but it does have a sweet built in brush guard on it and the bucket doesn't stick out so far in the front. It just looks like a better fit to me. When the dust finally settled.... I wound up buying the unit for $13,000.00 even, plus sales tax, for a total delivered price of $14,015.00.

One last ignorant question before I have them deliver it,if anyone will be kind enough to respond. They are offering to load all four tires with water and methanol for free. Should I only do the rear, or go ahead and fill the front too?

Thanks for wading through the muck of my first, and not very well thought out, thread.

hey there folks...
I've been reading in this board for a few days and came across this Medievel Looking thing! It looks like it will do just the thing for me and am wondering if anyone has any specs on it. I talked to a fabricator friend of mine and we are planning on putting one together but if any of you can give me some insight as to size of stock and stuff I'd really appreciate it... We're thinking of going with 1/2 inch box and then welding the teeth to it in pices... anyone have a better plan? or like I said earlier any dimensions and such that I could use to get started... thanks in advance for your time
