Just checked mine and they were upside down also. Thanks for the heads up Bluefin650. Randy

I have the BXpanded quick on back hoe connector on my BH 77 along with the hydraulic thumb conversion and it works real slick. I am constantly changing from the ripper tooth to the bucket. Without it , it would be a pain with the thumb linkage. One of the best investments I made so far. Randy

Looks like a subframe for a backhoe?? Randy

tunaslayer, I have the BH 77 also on a B2650 and my levers don't come within a 1/2 inch of the edge plate. They also seem to be more in the center aligned with that top bolt ?? Randy

Hopefully here are two pictures of the Michigan Iron ripper, it weighs about 70 pounds.

Thanks Paul, I'll dig right into it. Randy

Paul, You sure do amaze me with your problem solving with the hydraulic fittings and switch fabrication. Now, if you only had a 3-D printer, you could have cloned the FEL knob and put your own switch in it. I also plan to put the hydraulic cylinder on my thumb but I want to find a different...

67 for now

I have a B series with the ripper tooth also and your solution is the perfect answer to that problem. Unfortunately, I don't have the skills to make one for myself, so unless you plan to market the adapter or sell the Idea to Kubota, the chances of me acquiring one is pretty slim. The adapter...

I agree with Crickett, I really enjoy your mods and am very impressed with your design, workmanship and ingenuity. I don't make very many comments but am fascinated with your detail and explanations of what your doing. I've learned a lot from your posts and I always thought I was pretty...

I had this happen to me recently and found out that the three point hitch lever was in the up position. After I unlatched it and moved it back to the center rest position, everything worked OK again. Hope this helps. Randy
