3-Point Hitch Kit B2301/2601 missing

[boulderz]

I recently acquired a B2301 which has a backhoe attached since new (I'm second owner). Tractor is relatively new and low hours. Problem is the seller told me the 3PH kit wasn't included with purchase as the backhoe was on. Dealer says it would have been included. So now I'm trying to track down a replacement kit. I'm in touch with the dealer to see if they will do anything as original owner swears it wasn't included but I highly doubt dealer will believe it.

Anyone purchase a new Kubota with a backhoe and remember if the 3PH arms/linkage etc. were included and was it boxed up or loose parts? In the off chance anyone has a spare 3PH kit, let me know!

I KNOW the 3PH kit for my BX23S was an OPTION, though included free in the deal I made. It IS listed on the bill of sale, along with serial numbers for tractor, loader,BH and bucket.

Ordered my 2601 with a BH. 3 point hitch arms came with tractor as loose parts. Also got spare seat parts as the BH required a rotator frame

I'm surprised the 3PH would be considered an option. Isn't the hitch standard equipment? How old is your tractor?

Any chance they are for sale?

my BX23S was bought in May 2018..a BD gift to myself. 3PH is still in the box.

3PH is an option NOT std equipment, same as loaders, BH,grapples, etc.
heck guys put MMMs on them...a TLB with a MMM !!!

'In the beginning' tractors only had drawbars.....

Yes, my TLB has a MMM. I don't really need a backhoe though, but do need 3PH for other implements. Interestingly, spoke with dealer and they said the lift arm kit is standard and should have been delivered with the tractor. I'm pretty sure it wasn't.

nope. Sorry. I do use them for a chipper.

You should be able to order it as a whole goods kit from the dealer sales department

Won’t be cheap but less than the parts department will be

Can anyone tell me if there are differences between a B2301/B2601 3PH assembly and a BX 3PH? Trying to find out if I can expand my search a bit. Thanks

They (BX-vs B 3PH assembly) aren't the same at all. The suggestion above for contacting a dealer to order them thru whole goods would likely be your best option.
