It should since it bolts to the frame of the tractor. Not certain how far forward your hood tilts compared to the newer BX tractors. To me, this is really a front ornament, not much of a grille guard. It isn't that strong and will bend if it hits anything.

Thank you for your thoughts, I also can get this one which looks a lot more robust. Reason I want to put one on is because I've been moving and, pushing a lot of limbs and such from these downed trees with my loader bucket and, had some come up like spears just missing the mark going through the grill. Thought one of these should offer some protection...I hope.

The best protection comes from the steel mesh that has the smallest holes in it.

Well, guess I'll just have to fabricate one, have materials and, a good welder. After all, what could go wrong ? Thanks for your replies.

Here's what I fabricated for my BX. I had the tubing bent and I welded it together. I had the Kubota logo made a eMachineshop.com out of 1/8" steel. Bought the steel mesh from McMaster-Carr.

Very nice, looks like that will give great protection. Let me buy it.

Thanks, but it's not for sale. I've been thinking of making one a little different for it. If I do I'll let you know.
