Cat Backhoe Quick Coupler Compatibility

pbd05 ยท 2022-10-17 19:56

Picked up a quick attach/coupler from the auction, the price was right and it was the right tinge of yellow. Overall it's in great shape, it has part number 161-3241 on the tag. Comes up as fitting the C series backhoe. Question, will this coupler fit newer machines? Pin diameters are 45mm and 50mm, with spacing right at 345mm. Thanks!

    Can't recall which way, closer or further by an inch, that my 416C/426C buckets won't fit my 420E machines. Pin diameters and hinge width are same, but pin centers are different.
