I'm looking to buy a Takeuchi tl150 that does not have hydraulic quick attach and was wondering how hard and how expensive it would be to add it?

Piece of cake.
All it takes is a little common sense, a place to do the work, about `15-20 hrs labor and about $6500.00....give or take.

It shouldn't be near 15-20 hours we do them in 6-8 at our dealership

A shop makes it nice. A service truck or just a small crane would be wonderful. Unfortunately, thats a luxury that I don't have. So.... Im thinking to myself......Is your dealership near?
I could send them your way, have you do all of the work and still put some $ into my pocket.

Well we are in WI so I don't know how reasonable shipping would be, but you reuse the manual q/a plate add a ram and valve and some hoses and bam done. Putting a coupler on a excavator takes a bit more work

I believe paladin makes a kit for these, looking into one for a mustang mtl25 I recently added to the fleet. Believe the kit was under 3k.
