Kubota vs Aftermarket

[s219]

Pretty sure Kubota makes their front loaders and backhoes in their Georgia facility, but I can't say if there's an Ansung connection.

Let me guess a sub frame back hoe for a 3900 is $9500 right? With the aftermarket if it's not 3pt how would it fit the adapter plate of the Kubota sub frame? Too bad those hoes went up so much. If you happen to have a horse on the premises you can wrangle a 28% discount if you buy anything over $5,000 from Massey. I ended up with the 1736 Premium model you see on my postings for just around $29000. The hoe ended up IIRC last summer came in at around $7500 which about what they are really worth.

Why not just buy a after market tractor?

Pretty much sums it up.............

I bought the Ansung 760 for my Branson 4020R. Used it about 20 hours so far with no problems. Tractor has an Ansung loader and the subframe for the backhoe overlaps and connects to the loader subframe and the lower three point arm conection point. You do have to remove the 3 point arms to attach the backhoe. Backhoe connects with 2 hooks at the rear and 2 hooks that take a pin at the front and 2 hoses. Pretty simple once it is lined up. Mine works just fine off tractor hydraulics at 1400 rpm.
Ansung web sight shows subrames for Kubota as well. The model numbers are specific for Kubota models.
EA has a video on them.

Go for the Bota and never look back,you wont be sorry.

The Build My Kubota thing lists the 7.7 ft costing about $7600 with subframe.
Can you really get the Ansung for $4500 less ($3100)?

As a Kubota owner I would never even consider buying a new tractor with an aftermarket loader and hoe.... I want the entire unit covered under the same coverage and no bull crap of one vendor blaming the other.

I would not hesitate to go with Woods brand attachments, especially for the hoe. With the woods unit you can get a slightly stronger unit that has a separate PTO pump available.

Its not quite that simple. The loader and BH will only have a 1 yr while the tractor will have 2yr but you do certainly eliminate the multi vendor crap

It's the multi vendor stuff I hate.... Sure Woods or Wallenstien make good products ... Just don't like the finger pointing when a problem occurs.
