QA and 60 inch bucket for b2620

[bstrom]

thanks Chuck! Great pics. It's pretty amazing what the little B and 364 loader can lift. The forks are definitely in order for me! I dug out a rock not quite that big with my toothbar and it was an effort. Then I had to sweat allot with a pry bar to get it in the bucket. It was not fun! Those forks would sure would have made life easier.

The toothbar does have it's place for certain kinds of digging. I dug out a stream bed with it to put in a culvert and rock so I could drive over it with firewood. The toothbar worked pretty good for that. Those forks look great for rock work though - and I've got plenty!

Yes, one of the nice things about the forks is not having to chase stuff all over, or use long pry bars to get it loaded. You do have to be a little careful when you curl forks back with a rock this big on them, because the rocks tend to stay put until a certain point in the curl is reached, and then they come back pretty quickly sometimes. I dug a lot of rocks with my BX22 when I had it, but I think the forks make less mess than the backhoe did.

I've pulled a few like that one already, get the curl and a small lift, that's about it.

Once I land another job, I hope, those WILL be mine. I am spoiled though, got the BH to work with. Still trying to figure out if the BB will do any good during the winter or not on the drive.

Is this a Kubota part? If so any idea as to where i could buy in of these? I called a local Kubota dealer and they never heard of a 60in bucket that would fit the LA364.

Any idea of a part number or anything would be a great help.

I assume this "QA" (quick attach) is a standard quick attach. Once you have a standard quick attach, ANY quick attach implement (bucket, forks, etc.) will fit. A 72" bucket for my M8540 should fit.

You as the tractor owner just have to use common sense on how big of an attachment you want to put on your tractor.

The B2620 isn't going to be able to take a full scoop out of old earth with that bucket, but the OP has shown it has its place and is beneficial.

There are HUNDREDS of quick attach implements on the market. I think having a quick attach makes your tractor MUCH, MUCH more valuable/usable.

The quick attach system that is available for the B3200 will fit the B2620 series. I assume then the 60" light material bucket shown for the B3200 will also fit on the B2x20's. You can go to the Build my Kubota feature on the B3200's to get pricing estimate.

KU that is exactly right. It is the setup from the B3200. I have the 60" bucket and the forks. The 60" bucket is no problem even heaping with gravel.

How do you get the bucket off the loader to install the QA? I see the pins have bolts thru them, do you just remove those bolts and take those pins out? How tight are they?

I ordered a QA and 60" bucket and thought about having the dealer install but i cant imagine its that hard.

How much? I must do this some day :thumbsup:

Not sure yet but the total with shipping will be approx 1,000.00. Just not sure yet whether i should have them install the QA or whether i will do it.
