I am wanting to find a 3 pt hitch backhoe for the back of my Ford 681 to be used for light duty digging projects around my home. I have no backhoe experience; can you offer any advice? Please. Thanks for the help.

Bill: you will need a minimum of 500 lbs. ballast up front,, don't roll the hoe out unless the stabilizers are down, and when moving the tractor, make sure the hoe is tucked up as close as possible to the tractor. There is a terrific amount of weight on a tractor with a how and when moving, remember it' like the tail wagging the dog. Safety first and good luck. Tom
