Woods BH9000 or BH90-X on a L3130/3430

Jim,
Thank you for the dealership info. I will contact them.

If I am reading either the Kubota website, or the owners manual correctly, Kubota Tractor USA - Prior Products, the L2900 is the first Grand L tractor that Kubota produced. FYI: The L2900 weighs more then the L3400 and less then that L4400.

Ken,
Thank you for all your input. I will post photos after the marriage is complete. Sometimes life is hard, but it is always worth it.

I had a B21 for several weekends and I found out that the B21 hoe is too big for the tractor. I was able to move the tractor around alot. I suspect the same will be true of this setup. If it wasn't for the fact that I came by the backhoe at a very good price, I would have purchased the BH7500. Eitherway, the only subframes out there for older tractors are "old" sytle 3 point subframes. These older style subframes take 4-6 inches of ground clearance away. I would like to avoid that.


Thank you all for your help.

To all:
It seems that this combination (L2900/3010 with a Woods BH9000) has been done before.

I just spoke to the salseman at the store and the tractor sold in less than 1 week.

Any L2900/3010 owners who can comment on using this backhoe on the smallest Grand L? Any 3130/3430 oweners who have a Woods BH9000/BH90-X on their tractor? Does the BH toss the tractor around?

I just installed a BH9000 w PTO Pump on a L3130 HST last fall. I have been able to use it a couple times. It doesn't necessarily shake the tractor around unless you make sharp jerky movements on the joysticks. As far as the shakes go its kind of like jerking the FEL around while your learning to use it. I had to buy a Woods subframe #1006837 to attach the hoe. Its a big ol' thing hanging off the back but sure does seem to dig well. I bought it used with a 12" and 24" bucket. It may be just a tad big for the L3130 but the tractor is rated to handle it with the correct subframe properly installed. I still have the subframe that came with the backhoe in case anybody needs one. Its a Woods #100555 Subframe to attach a BH9000 to these Kubota tractors: L4300DT, L4300F and L4610 ...

I need two outside to outside width measurements:

The 1006837 frame that stays on the tractor has a lower pocket on each side and a bolt at the top of each side. This is the bolt that you tighten when installing the backhoe on to the subframe.

I need the outside to outside dinemsion for those points. The tire spacing on my tractor may not allow this to mount. It seems the subframe will need to live on the outside of the ROPS on a GL2900, verses the inside for the 3130/3430. I may not have enough tire clearance.

Any chance you still have the subframe around? I know this post is OLD!
