Just purchased the 3pt hitch model because my dealer here in Southern Manitoba said the frame mount unit has been discontinued. I have been back and forth with him because the lift arm mounts that come in the kit, when installed, won't allow you to connect the backhoe. I have a 2014 BX25D with the 602 backhoe. He is contacting Kubota to find out what they are doing about it or if they knew about it.

Sorry for the long delay in responding to your last post. I actually used a floor jack to raise the low side before inserting the pins, but it did not seem to make any difference. As soon as I lowered the jack, the low side sagged back down. I have since reverted to the original turnbuckles, which are a PITA, but they do seem to make leveling possible.
As a FYI, the telescoping stabilizers, which I bought from Hodge for my BX22, are well made but they are not the perfect solution for all implements. In addition to the aforementioned issues with the bagger, they also don't work with my Landpride landscape rake because the square ends interfere with the cross member of the implement (well beyond what can be safely rectified by removing the square corners...I tried). I may stick with the turnbuckle stabilizer bars of everything.
