B3030HSDC with Backhoe

[littlediesel]

Has anyone put a backhoe on their B3030HSDC (factory cab model)? I am thinking about buying a backhoe for my B3030 and would like to know some experiences of anyone who has one. Also, would anyone have any pictures they could post with the cab model tractor and backhoe! I would appreciate any feedback!

Thanks,
Jon.

The dealer told me they could mount up a backhoe on my B3030 HSDC with some tweeking, sounded a little scary to me?

One of the local Kubota dealers put a woods backhoe on a B3030HSDC, and it looked like it would work well. I believe the hoe was a BH80x. The Woods mount puts the backhoe just far enough to the rear that everything seems to clear the cab fine.......
Good luck!

There's an ad for a B3030 here with a picture that has a hoe on the back.

Hi,

I am just about to pull the trigger on a new B3030 with FEL, Woods Bh80-X and Snowblower. I was not getting the Cab version but am now having second thoughts. Do you know the price difference between the B3030 with and without the cab??

Thanks

I believe it is around a $4000 difference between a B3030HSD and HSDC.

Is the backhoe compatable with the cab?

The factory Kubota backhoe is NOT supported when you purchase the cab model.

Woods does support their backhoe models on the cab. Just search the threads here on Tractorbynet and you will find mention of the B3030HSDC with Woods 80x and 70x bachoes.

I'm sure you're correct, I just knew I had read somewhere that the cab model/backhoe was an issue. Wasn't trying to tell you you couldn't, was just trying to point out the issue and stop a possible mistake/problem. Good luck with it.

I'm about to have a BH80X mounted on my b3030hsdc. The dealer says no problem. That's a 4 pt hitch, hyd. from the tractor. With factory installed thumb. It weighs about 900 lbs installed with frame. The correct frame extends out about 6 inches beyound the normal mounting of a non-cab model.
Pricing from my dealer is $7300 installed with thumb or $6500 for BH70X. It looks and specs are pretty aggressive. About 4000 lbs of bucket force. I'll post a pic when it's installed.
