Could use some advice/assistance on the installation of a LA302 on my B7510. I bought my B7510 about 4 months ago and came without the loader attachment from the factory and just has the mower deck installed. Recently purchased an LA302 off of a dead B7510. Have all the arms/hoses that came off the dead B7510. Do I need any additional hydraulic parts? Any advice/recommendations? I was planning on pulling my mower deck and brackets off this weekend and beginning the process of getting the hardware installed. Will be buying a couple gallons of hydraulic fluid to add to the system. Thanks in advance for any help/advice!

Do you have the 3 lines that feed the valve?
Did you also get the adapter plate for the hydraulics?

Yes - i have the 3 lines that feed the valve.

The adapter plate I got splits it into two male hose attachments.

When I worked with him to disconnect it I noticed one hose goes under the seat and two go to the adapter plate right underneath the tractor...

So it looks like the only thing I didn't get was the return fitting that goes into the side of the transmission - i have the hose - just no the fitting? Is that something that could be sourced locally? Wondering if I can match the threads and get a fitting at NAPA?

Yes that's a common sized fitting. JIC male to I think NPT male, but remove the plug in the case and check the threads. I forget the actual sizes but it's a common fitting.

One caution...don't overtighten it ;)

It's not a JIC to BSPT like the rest of kubota's odd fittings?

The Kubota P/N for that fitting is 75582-66810. Might be able to get it from Kubota dealer.
