Backhoe OK on a B7500?

Hi Fred: Where did you find the 4672A and what is the difference between it and the 4672? Been looking for a used 4672 for 2 mos since buying the 7510 with FEL...guess I don't know where to look.....glad to hear that apparently some are still available. Also if it is not too much to ask about what did you pay for it? If that is private, I understand and thank you for the encouragement that I will find one soon.

You will need a frame stiffener bracket (Kubota B4681) in addition to the HD top link. The stiffener looks like this:

I bought a WoodMaxx backhoe a couple of years ago for my B7500. As mentioned, for any 3 point backhoe you do want to install the support brackets and heavy duty top link. For those of you that are still interested here is the installation sheets for both.

Which WoodMaxx backhoe did you get for your B7500 the WM6600 or the WM7600? I would like to add one to my B7500 later this year, Lord willing. It seems that the wider support-arm/outrigger footprint of the WM7600 would be nicer, as long as it wouldn’t damage the tractor. There’s only about 30lbs weight difference in the two different models.

I researched the B4681 frame stiffener kit, and my Kubota dealer said it’s no longer available as a kit; however, it appears that the individual parts are available, which will make the cost a little north of $200 (not counting the reinforced hd top link bracket). I got a GREAT deal on the tractor, but I’m also going to have to order all the 3ph parts, since someone scavaged all of those off the tractor when the previous owner sold his tiller attachment....

Ok, I'm a bit confused. I've searched to no avail so I thought I'd post. I bought the WM6600 for my B7500. I have the heavy duty top link but not the frame support brackets. I have the LA272 also and my question is this. Can you even put the frame support brackets on with the loader installed? Doesn't the loader kit include frame support brackets? Maybe not exactly the same but still brackets? Thanks
