Very nice. If you don't mind me asking - how much did the Kubota pallet forks attachment end up costing? I didn't gone one when I ordered my B3200 - now, I'm thinking I should have.
Turns out I had a nice pair of forged 36" forks sitting in my basement I had almost forgotten about - brought one of them to the Kubota dealer and tried it on the Kubota Pallet Fork frame to see if they fit - they do!.
Bought the pallet fork frame right there - $636.00 , best accessory yet for the tractor. Used it on Monday to move a whole bunch of granite curbing we picked up at a local quarry that's having court ordered auction of assets.
The pallet forks - with the forks I have on it (I believe they're 3 or 4000 pound forks - they weigh about 65 pounds each) - will lift four pieces of granite 3ft long x 6 inches wide x 12-13 inches high (translates into about 250 pounds each).
So the pallet fork setup on the LA504 will do right around 1000 pounds to about a third height.
Have you noticed any vibration from your B3300SU? I'm starting to notice the vibration I've heard people talk about with the B3200.
