B3030 HSDC attaching a BH77

[Chevdrgtrk]

Hey all, I’m putting a BH77 onto a B3030 cab…yes, I know that kubota says that it can’t be done, but was interested to see if anyone wants to see what I had to modify to do it. If they do, I’ll take pics, and explain what it takes, or if not, I won’t really worry about taking the extra time, and just get it done.

Kubota just doesn't randomly say you can do something, so I'm guessing there is a real reason for it.

Just looking a the specs and pic's it looks like the mount in going to be too close to the cab, and for one the seat will hit the cab.

Do you already have the BH and the subframe and the hydraulic kit?

Yes, I have everything to do it, backhoe, subframe, hydraulics...etc. Ive done a lot of back and forth research on the parts between the B3030 cab, and the B3000 cab which will take a backhoe. Basically, you have to clearance the front cab mount for the subframe, and fab a stiffiner bracket with nuts welded on the backside, then weld that ot the lower side of the rear cab mount. Get the subframe kit for a B3000, then you just bolt everything up as if its a B3000.

I would LOVE to see what/how you do it.

That will be a very cool project sir.

Please post your progress!


EDIT: There are lots of very talented people on this board, so if you have any questions or such, just ask.

Here it is, a B3030 HSDC with a BH77 on it. If anyone wants to see what I had to do to put it on, I can start another thread. I took lots of pics and can explain it all on there.
