How hard is it to uncrate and install an la364fl on a b2920 that has never had a fl installed?

Dealer wants to charge $150 plus float fee

A little info

2008 Kubota b2920
Front mount blower with quick hitch
Sims cab

All the holes should be pre drilled/tapped on the frame?

Thanks for any help

Will do!


Anything to look for? Loctite threads?

Thanks

I like LocTite Blue on things I may want to remove later, it holds good & is not too bad to remove if you have too...
Fully assemble and have everything squared away... Then go back and loctite each bolt One at a time...

As long as it comes with instructions and torque settings, I can't imagine it's too hard. There are a *lot* of nuts and bolts involved, some big, some small, and all have very specific torque numbers. Some are hard to get to, so you will need an assortment of torque wrenches, sockets, and extensions. I remember this from when I re-torqued all the bolts at the 50 hour service. I think I had to order a couple special sockets and extensions.

Years ago i bought a new FEL for my mahindra. 2810HST I spent a day going to Ohio to pick it up. In talking to the dealer i bought it from he said expect 8 to 10 hours to install it. I told him 3 hours and he laughed at me. I started the next day with a date and time stamped digital picture. Almost 3 hours later i finished with the last picture. I called the dealer and e-mailed the pictures to him.He replied quickly with the comment,"want a job?" I really believe if the tractor and loader were at the same garage i could have did it quicker than 3. It was an easy job . . .John

If you run into any problems you could visit the dealer and look at an assembled unit or request that folks on here that have the same unit take pictures. It should not take too long. Watch the torque specs and you should be OK.
