BX2370
I purchased a BX2370 by phone; traded in a GR2100. I thought it would include the hydronic valves for a future Frontenac Loader - it didn't. So about how much will it costs to add the valves and loader?9

I don't know for Kubota, but for a MF GC2300 wich is the MF equivalent of the BX's
The complete kit & installation goes for over 4000$ :eek:...Canadian dollars here.
So I ended up trading my GC2300 for a new GC2610 instead.

Yeah, that's kind of a mistake, but you know that. The loader valves are not a simple thing to install. Installing the loader is pretty easy, actually. You might want to go ahead and contact your dealer.

Just to let you know the four position valve is 656.00 plus frieght,15 to 20 hours to install (tractor needs to be torn down)and the loader is between $2300.00 to $2400.00.Do the math you may want to sell or trade it in for what you want.Hope this helps.

To be clear, I have no experience with the exact tractor you're speaking of. I will tell you that I have a B2630 that I just added a FEL and valve to last September. It did not require the tractor to be torn down and was fairly easy to install. In fact, great directions are included. I did everything myself, including taking each piece I could lift off the pallet one by one and then finally dragging the pallet with the remaining arms off my trailer and then driving the tractor up to it for the final attachment. I'm just handy and like to do things myself...I have no extensive experience with tractors. So this is definitely doable, but expensive. For an LA403 FEL, valve, and larger 60" bucket with Kubota quick attach, I paid right at $4K. It is very surprising to me that your tractor would require tearing down to install the valve. I would think it is like mine with the hydraulic block just capped off. You would definitely want to confirm what is involved.

Just like scotm said .When I got my BX 2670 dealer told me to get tractor with loader valve installed on it if you are thinking about putting a loader on it down the road, waaaayyy cheaper to have the valve installed from the factory.It still can be done But tractor WILL have to be taken apart to put it on.:(

My dealer said the same thing.

I didn't want it but he said they order them all with it.

If the newer BX 70 series are like my BX 50 series the loader valve is mounted down by your right foot behind the dash. I suspect running the hydraulic lines would require removing the floor pan, seat deck assembly. Not a super difficult just very time consuming.
