Can anyone confirm the hole pattern on the Kubota B01 Series Tractor? Also, I said 3/16" to 1/8" in the video for elongating hole on bracket and should have said 3/32" to 1/8".
Good day SEL! Some great helpful info for folks like me and others. Thanks for sharing. Just an FYI- if you have a 4-point Hitch Sub Frame ( K-Connect) for the front mount snowblower, brush or other front mount attachments, those bolt holes are used to mount the heat shields on both sides of the tractor frame. However, depending on the angle of those tie down brackets, you could simply mount them with the heat shields or remove the heat shields and bolt the tie downs instead. Thanks again - great video and demo / explanation. Cheers!
Nice find on the brackets!! It appears this will work with a FEL attached? Forgot a little tip. Industry standard is to use a flat washer anytime there is a slot instead of a hole. This provides a little more even clamping force under the bolt head and reduces the chance of the slot pulling around the bolt head under heavy / shock loading.
Dave, very nice update. Thanks for posting. You should share your mod with Ken. 😊 You should pin your comment so it stays on top to get the B series dimensions Maybe he would sell a different version for the LX with the new hole locations. Thanks for doing the leg work. I'm still waiting for my LX. Dan
Thanks Daniel! I pinned my comment. I have emailed Ken about elongating the hole for the Kubota LX folks. He is aware of it. That's crazy you are still waiting on your tractor!
@@sweatequitylife The dealer finally got the LX in January, and started the build. They are still waiting on the backhoe sub-frame to complete the build. They hope to have she sub-frame in the next week or so. Yeah, it has been a very long wait. Dan
@@sweatequitylife Same here in Massachusetts. My dealer has BH77's but no sub-frames for any of the models it fits. I ordered my LX last May with the sub-frame as part of the deal. Dan
Got the same hooks on my LX3310 but they will have to come off when my K-connect gets installed. I wonder if they can be sandwiched behind or in front of the heat shields?
Doesn't look like they will fit with heat shields just looking at it. Since you have the brackets and will be getting the heat shields, let us know. I am assuming the heat shield is most important on the exhaust side to deflect the exhaust away from hoses?
@@sweatequitylife my exhaust exits on the right side of the tractor so I could probably left the left tie down on. I'll have to see what the heat shield looks like and com3 up with a plan.

Diagonal holes on a B2601 are 1 5/8” center to center. Horizontal holes are 2 9/16” center to center.

Hey Gord, thanks for watching! That's great info about the 4 point hitch that I was unaware of.
I've been looking at these...good info, well presented. Thanks!
Thanks, Glad it was helpful!
Very nice! Thanks for the mention!
Very helpful information. Thank you

Yes....My FEL is attached, just lifted for more room to install. Thanks for watching!
@@sweatequitylife Awesome 👍

I was just at my local dealer last week and they had good stock of tractors and they told me they can't get sub-frames fast enough as well.
