You'll get about as many opinions as posts. Almost as bad as an electrical, oil or trailering post. "8^)
I ran a 3PH backhoe on my JD750 for many many years. Is it ideal? Nope. Is it useful? Absolutely.
You just have to realize that it's not intended to be a construction-grade backhoe. It's not as powerful, not as rugged and certainly not as fast as a dedicated hoe. But if you take smaller bites and don't try to dig stumps up with it, you'll be fine.
Mine was right on the 3PH and it did, after 20 years, cause some issues with stresses on the transmission and rearend due to the way it mounted. Just some stretched bolts and minor leaks, easily fixable, but a sub-frame mounted hoe is the way to go.
