L3240 + BH92 = ?

[Baby Grand]

R&S delivered, literally!
Here's driver Greg bringing it home:

Hat's off to John Rebillard, at R&S, who waded thru conflicting documentation and got it sorted out.
He also answered every one of my phone calls. I would have put me on hold.
R&S gets added gratitude for scheduling delivery quickly and having the driver arrive early.
Had a chance to play ... umm ... work with it before a mid-morning medical appointment.

Works great - very smooth.

Glad to see you got it worked out.That is definitely a nice addition to your tractor.

Dealer came & took my L3240 away to install a BH92 hoe.
But now there is a question about which mounting kit to order.
Apparently the one they got (BH4997) "doesn't fit up right".
So it sits at the dealer and here sit I, without my #1 go-to tractor.
All the while chores are not getting done.
And I miss it.

Anyone have a BH92 on their L3240?
If so, which mounting kit did they install?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Ok now that all is well.

What were the chores that were not getting done.
You don't have to answer it's really none of my business but since you said that I thought, Gee I wish I had some chores to do.

Last thing I did last week was get the backhoe out by the pool fence gate, the ground was up since winter and would not let the gate open fully.
So I used the backhoe and the weight of the tractor to push the ground/grass back down. Now the gate opens fully again. Put the tractor back in the garage.

The gate story is funny - I guess once you get a new tool you just keep finding unintended uses for it!
The chores that aren't getting done don't require the backhoe. I need to brush hog - badly.
Also have some saw logs that need to be moved to where I cut & split and some pallets of split wood that need to be moved. Then there's the brush that needs to be chipped - all chores that I need the L3240 to do.

Now that I have the hoe, there's lots of stumps that need extraction, a couple very small ponds (pools, more like) that need digging and some drainage work that needs doing. And for unintended uses, I'm going to use the 'hoe to lift up a cultipacker I've been making to simplify painting it.

Oh, and now I have to figure out where the 'hoe will live when it's not on the tractor!

Hey baby grand can you heilp a fellow L3240 no dash no numbers out. My dealer went to the same school yours did and gave me the wrong kit. I was wondering if you could help a guy out with the part numbers of the mounting kit that works. The subframe they gave me bolted up ok but the hydraulic tubes are wrong. Any help would be most appreciated. Four weeks in and getting no where. Bh 92 patiently waiting.
