Me Again! I called a local Kubota shop to see if I could find stabilizing brackets and a heavy duty top link per the suggestions I received here on TractorByNet. I have a Kubota K629 which was manufactured by Brantly as a chassis mount backhoe for the B7100. I have a B8200. SO... the unit I own is 3PT... Brantly didn't make them in 3 point, so it has been modified (see picture). I am wondering if it is safe for me to use this implement? It appears that someone added the 3pt frame and the seat you see in the picture; however, the lower 3pt pins seem much closer together than my other implements. Would a heavy duty top link suffice to use this? It looks like the weight of the backhoe is displaced pretty far from the back of the tractor... will that increase the odds of cracking my PTO casing? This thing works great and thatnks to some members the pump mounts up great... I just worried I am going to break my tractor or my neck if I use it! Any and all comments and advise are GREATLY appreciated!
