Backhoe 3pt backhoe

vtkubota · Apr 12, 2005

Need some advice;there is an auction nearby that states there will be 3+ 3pt backhoes for sale new and used. Which peaks my interest. What should I look for as far as wear and tear and how about pricing, I realize that it is an auction. The add doesn't state name brands. I have a B7500 and don't want to get something that doesn't fit my tractor. Any advice would be appreciated! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I have a B7500 with a subframe bradco BH and Kubota does not recommend using a 3pt BH, dealer said problems with breaking the case. I did not argue the point since the subframe looked to be alot more structually sound.
I am glad I have the subframe due to the stump digging/root breaking I do puts alot of strain on the tractor.

Thanks I will keep that in mind. I'll send out a post if I purchase anything this weekend. Thanks again.

While a subframe backhoe sure seems better than a 3PH backhoe, it should be poiinted out that the Kubota B4672 backhoe, which is the hoe Kubota puts on the B7500, is a 3PH backhoe...

So it is not correct to say Kubota does not recommend the 3PH backhoe on their tractors. The BL4690A on my B2910 is also a Kubota 3PH hoe on a Kubota tractor... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'll probably see you there in 'Georgia' which is near St. Albans? I am also curious about the backhoes.
