Earth & Turf Grill Guard

[Kubota Christian]

If you are looking for an aftermarket grill guard, check out Earth and Turf Attachments. I have a B7100 that is a real pain to get a grill guard for. But John over at Earth and Turf is working with me to adapt a model he created for the BX series. The best part is that it is easily detachable and includes a hitch receiver. The truly personalized customer service is something you would have to experience to believe. After investing $400+ in a new radiator and $300 in a new grill net radiator screen, this is a must have for avoiding punctures in the future. It might work for your application too.

Is there a version to fit an L4760?

Ron, I will paste below the email I got. Short answer is no but with so few aftermarket options it would be possible for most B/BX owners to adapt what is mentioned below. And then it seems possible that if there were enough interest from fellow orange tractor talk members we might be able to drive production of some better options for us all. Email follows...

"Thanks for your interest in our products. The BX grille guard was designed for the 2370 and 2670***8221;. We do have a modified one for the 1870. The unit has a receiver hitch and two tie downs slots for strapping the tractor down to a trailer. It sells for $197.00 and ships Fed Ex ground.
If you have any questions or would like to order a unit please contact me.

Christian thanks for the forward. Is your interpretation that the "modified one for an 1870" would somehow fit the L4760? I can certainly call John, but if mention of that custom unit is an example, possibly they will custom fab.

I'm attempting a lower-cost quality change-out vs simply tacking hardware cloth to the factory framework/repaint. Like you, when I acquired the tractor at 300 hours, the only blem was a punctured grill where a limb snuck past the FEL and right through the open framework of the factory guard, so it could easily happen again since I've now replaced the grill.
