Derrickroy - welcome to the forum

First - are you getting the subframe and all the hydraulics too?

and as for the fit - I am NOT sure it will - the 2360 and the 2380 will share many of the same parts - HOWEVER that being said - all you need is a couple of bolt holes not to line up.

Here is Neil describing the 340 and the 344

Yes. It will be the complete loader la344 kit. Just wanted to see if it would bolt on my bx2360 frame.

Looking at mounts they do mount up to the same holes, so it looks promising.
One issue might be the routing of the hydraulic lines as the BX2380 has a different routing.

So. It bolted on perfectly. Gotta swap the quick connections. But otherwise it's perfect fit. Still gotta install brush guard.. and oh yeah 😎 kubota will finance it. !!!

Did you use the frame brackets that came with the 344 (the ones that bolt to the sides of the 2360) or the old 243 brackets
thanx

I do believe he used the LA344 Brackets, because he said he bought the whole thing as a set.

I have a 2009 BX2660 and would like to add the LA344 loader and do the installation. I've looked for more information on the forum, but couldn't find it. Anyone here, maybe derrickroy above have an idea on the parts I'll need as this model didn't come loader ready? Unsure of what comes with the 344 loader kit. Thinking I'll need these pictured below - loader valve, controller, and hydraulic pipes from the hydraulics in the back, but wanted to check with those who've done it before calling a dealer. Those below are all from the BX2660 (accessories) parts diagrams.
