Does anyone know the part number & estimated cost for the HD bracket I've seen discussed on backhoe threads?

I think he wants to use a 3pt BH and there is a HD top link bracket for that purpose.
Mine is a subframe so I can't help there.

No, it's a piece of metal that's formed to fit under the seat and bends over the back side to bolt to where the original top link bolts into. I saw a photo of it somewhere here...
BTW, I would like to know this information, too.
Edit.... You might have seen this thread:

Ah. Now I know what you are talking about.
Teg - I can't believe that they haven't taken care of your PTO yet!

Ahhh yes, I have that bracket and posted pics on a previous post (2yrs 10/05?). Tim at Carver Equip. helped me with this.
This is a support bracket for the top link in using 3pt attachments ie. boxblade,
rear grader and 3 pt backhoe.
It is 90 degree's, fits the 6 holes on the case under the two piece 3 pt top link bracket and is secured at the top under the seat bracket. I welded the two piece 3 pt. brackets to it.
This is a heavy duty support bracket that is in the Kubota parts manual, but for some reason, some dealers are not aware of it -------- see post's on breaking rear end housing with 3 pt backhoes.
I will post pics in a few days (not computer savy, need wife) in regards to this.
t'ill then, search post "jw5875" 10/05

I'm ashamed about the PTO but then again I'm ashamed that I've had the tractor for over 2.5 years and have less then 100 hours on it before last wk/ed. Used it this past weekend, started the tractor in the shed to let it warm up and let the clutch out only to find out (the hard way) that I left the rototiller on. Of course the PTO was OFF but that doesn't mean much with this L2800 tractor
. Lucky, it's a dirt floor, now I have a nice 4" trench. I've hit the pto cable several times with wd-40 and that wk/ed it worked when I cut off the chipper/shredder 3 times!!!! I need to check it with the tiller or PHD.<Warning, Rant Ahead> I spend so little time at the "farm" that I'm not going to waste any time (3 hours and $80 in gas) to go visit my dealer. Whom, I think is the dumbest dealer around because he never knows a darn thing about? What does kubota call them? "Product Improvement Bulletins." Why are so many dealers so clueless about these? I would assume that they would like to be on top of their game. Just too lazy to go to the website (or not smart enough). I told my dealer about the pto not working when I had the 3ph valves changed out but he did nothing about the pto. </End Rant>
Which gets back to the original post - Part number for the HD bracket?
EDIT: looked up JW5875's old post, which says: "Anyhow, I talked to Tim at Carver Equip. 910-892-7171 - kubota L 3400 have serial # (it helps to confirm part#) Part #70050-94557 reinforced top link bracket." I'll give him a call, thanks.
The couple of dealers that actually knew of the 3ph shutter and took care of your customers my hat is off to you. I wish I could have done more research and looked at the dealer more. I just wanted a tractor and the wife was behind it... should have shopped around for a better dealer.
