powerrabbit Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 A Britain's JCB handler cut down with a 5000 skid and a JCB Farmaster backhoe digger arm could be the answer. Possibe perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 think a jcb 3cx digger arm would be better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS135A DRIVER Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 That's a rather unusual looking conversion there, I think you would be better with a tracked 360 degree digger as this beast looks like it would be very unstable on hillsides with all the weight out on one side of it at full out reach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted July 31, 2007 Author Share Posted July 31, 2007 think a jcb 3cx digger arm would be better A Britain's JCB handler cut down with a 5000 skid and a JCB Farmaster backhoe digger arm could be the answer. Possibe perhaps? these were made in nz back in the 70s when there was a high tax on imports, so its made by a proper desing team and all that, they stoped making loaders and hoes in 1986 when 360 diggers started to come in, kinda sad realy but the company is still living on doing hydrolic work and custom building and converting, The makers are called Tracgrip That is not based on a 5000 but a 6600 or 7600 thats just what i was told, the guy i wastalking to was driving it in the pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
