Ditch Witch R65 backhoe – How does coupling drive attach?

dumbneasy ยท 2025-06-15 23:21

At my wits end. I think my Ditch Witch R65 motor (V465D Wisconsin) is seized because it sat for so long while I've been sick with the Big "C." Ran fine when parked. My R65 has a front backhoe attachment on it, and I have never seen a coupling like it coming off the engine shaft and connecting to the backhoe. It sort of looks like a wobble joint egg with a big center pin. Can't tell. Maybe it has a spline on both ends and I have to pull the backhoe for it to release. Haven't a clue. Does anybody know? I'd appreciate a "git back" if'n ya know! TIA!
