Is the backhoe loader a thing of the past?

It will also be sae+ controls on the backhoe with it been a cat...whether your used to them. It's the pattern I learned on.

Beg pardon? Sticks I have used a tiny bit but most of my limited time is on ISO I think ?

Swappable to ISO I think maybe?

Doubt it on that year. It was only a 432d that had swappable from iso to sae+ and you had to use a spanner to alter the valve.

Sae+ are same as 3cx but in a + not an × pattern

Spose you could go down the swapping of pipes route to make it iso.

Just looked again. I assumed it was a 428b, it's not it's a 438b...it will have selectable 4 wheel steer and bigger engine....quite a rare beast...buy it.

I can’t find anything about the 4 wheel steer option on the 438b

That's what I was wondering- doesn't look 4 wheel steer yet the sticker says otherwise.

Tbh it looks a fairly clean useable machine, obviously could be a bit of a restoration project too on some of it but hopefully not far off going straight to work

If I had somewhere dry to store things I would have been quite keen

I still remember my BIL having to spend a lot of money getting brakes fixed on his 590. Big job IIRC

If you look at this video you can see the rear wheels are steered.

All wheel steer used to be an option on the 434e iirc. You dont need equal sized tyres on the cats to have aws.
