Kubota L3830 & Woods BH80X backhoe 3pt going to subframe Kit

[Foxl3830]

Hello I posted a similar post on the Kubota owning and operating site didn't get much respons? So I'm reaching out to everyone. I bought a used woods Bh80X backhoe with pto pump and 3pt hitch. I have put it on just to check it out and my daughter and my self have touched up paint and greased it up. I got a fairly good deal on it I was searching for a Kubota Bh90 or bh 92 or a woods Bh90x since I bought the tractor found a few used ones but usually by the time I could go look at them(I work for a living) they were either gone or super beat up. So I found the woods 80X and got it and I'm happy to have it.So with all the talk of 3pts being tractor killers as soon as I got it home I ordered a subframe for it priceee indeed. Figured I'd be able to find a you tube video or some forums on installing the subframe on my tractor but I've searched hard no go no videos out there.so I'm turning to the good people here for advice and knowledge. I even tried calling my woods dealer they said instructions are included with the subframe kit ? I'm somewhat mechanically inclined but just like to research it or prepare so when it comes I get right to putting it on. I'm now at about 41/2 weeks waiting for subframe I quess Woods machines each subframe especially on older models mine is a 2005 Kubota L3830 I'm thrilled to be able to get a factory subframe for it still seems odd that woods won't even e mail me a copy of the instructions? I can weld but by no means could I build a subframe and feel confident on using it. So any info would be appreciated! It's killing me not to use it I've got a ton of projects lined up but figured I better wait till I get the subframe. For those that responded on other forum thank you for info I'm just digging for more info ok thanks. Here is a pic of backhoe on tractor with 3pt ok thanks again

That look great. You’ll love having it whenever you need it.
It looks like it needs some feet for the stabilizers. Does it have locks to keep the stabilizers and boom locked in the up position? You want those so when you let it sit for a couple weeks the hydraulics don’t leak down. If they do leak down, you have to start the tractor, then get off and move everything back to the transport position before you can move the tractor.

Several people have parked their brand new BX next to their wife’s car in the garage and came out a few days later to find one of the stabilizers resting on the car.
