Hi,
The Northern Tool Catalog lists an XB Carryall frame that's sized for SubCut tractors. Looks like it would work well for carrying firewood on my B7610 if I built a wooden bed on it.

However, the catalog states it is compatible with Cat 0 3 pt. hitch...as are the rest of the XB implements listed. Of course the B7610 is Cat 1 as is the BX series (which I thought the XB line was designed for). Will I need to replace the Cat 0 pins with Cat 1 and drill out the toplink hole, or do I stay with Cat 0 and use bushings? I don't recall seeing Cat 0 to Cat 1 bushings at TSC.

Is anyone using XB implements on a B-series Kubota or other Cat 1 CUT? Do they fit OK or are they strictly for smaller tractors? I like the looks of their 4' XB brush cutter and their XB tiller.

Thanks.
Bob

I have a KK XB subsoiler that I use behind my BX2350. I hooked it up right out of the box - no modifications were needed.

I use a KK XB subsoiler on my TC18 with cat. 1 hitch. I didn't have to change or modify anything.

It should fit both limited cat 1 and cat 0. I have the XB tiller and it will fit either one.

Try one of the Yahoo groups on Power King garden tractors and the clones, Economy or Jim Dandy.

I have a kk subsoiler middle buster combo. It would not fit my 2210 out of the box. The width of my top link was too wide to fit the implement. I talked to KK about it and they said yes they sell the subsoilder with cat 1 pins but it's really a cat 0 implement. So it may or may not fit your tractor out of the box. The modification to make the subsoiler/MB work was minor it just took a few minutes with a torch and a welder.
