Factory Quick Attach FEL: when for B series?

[otteridiz]

When did the B series start having a factory quick attach option for FELs? And did larger tractors have it before the B series?

Looking at buying a used Kubota, but would like quick attach option. So want to rule out older models that would need “special” conversion or adapter for quick attach feature.

Thanks!

I can't tell you exactly when the factory started offering it, but the QA was available on a B2650 in 2013.

It was an option on the B2650 and B3350 until the LX series came out where it became standard equipment. I'm not sure if it was standard or an option for the B2601.

B3200 had a quick attach option, but not ssqa in 2010 or 2011. I believe. B2620/30 loaders could be adapted so the B3200 qa would work on the B26xx loaders.

I wouldn't be afraid of converting a nice older tractor to SSQA. I just traded in a 2007 B21TLB with 500 hrs (for a new L47) that I had converted with an ATI SSQA and loved that machine. I believe the B26 that replaced it in 2008 had the factory SSQA as standard equipment.

My apologies for the double post.....still on my first cup.
