Will 2008 B4672A backhoe fit my 2009 B3200

Picked up a 2009 B3200 two weeks ago from the local Kubota dealer.
Now I am shopping for a backhoe attachment and come across a B4672A backhoe off a 2008 B7510 with only 122 hrs. The lady is willing to sale my the backhoe for $4100.
Does anybody know if it will fit my B3200?
Consider I am in Canada, the price is OK I guess.

Is it a 3 point mount or on a sub frame?

Looks like its a 3 point hitch mount, hard to tell from the photo. But yeah it'll fit if its a 3 point hitch mount.

Thank you, Eric. What's the difference between 3pt vs subframe? Is one better than the other?

A subframe is a lot more ridgid way of mounting the backhoe to the tractor. Alot more metal and 4 points of contact to hook up instead of 3. There's nothing wrong with a 3 point hitch backhoe if you use it for ocassional digging. The 3 point hitch backhoe attatches to your tractors 3 point hitch just like any other attatchment would and uses the pto to turn and pump the hydraulics.

Bascially if your all day every day digging with a bachoe then a subframe is the way to go, if you plan to dig once in a while then a 3 point hitch backhoe will suit your needs as well.

Some people claim and argue that a 3 point backhoe can break a tractor in half. I've never seen nor heard of that happening and honestly does not add up. The lift arms of the hitch was get trashed before the tractor took a hit. I ran a 3 point backhoe for a few years and dug up and replaces a sewer line with it. Its all I had and was alot faster then a shovel.

Thank you, Eric. I think I am going to offer her $3500. If she doesn't take it, I'll pass and looking for BH76 to buy.

$3500 sounds like a fair price. Would be silly on her part not to sell and let it go over 600 bucks.

She decided not to sell. Looking to buy a BH76 now.
