Can anyone give me a part number (s) for these guards? I can't find a listing on the Kubota parts website. Or a heavier aftermarket manufacturer would be even better. Thank you for your help.

I don't see the guards for the BT1000 on the L47. They are shown on the BT1200 for the M59. You could probably adapt those or fabricate some from scratch.

Did you try Messicks? Use you BH model number
I couldn't find it on Messicks because I never removed my search for L47 parts. After I removed that search I found the parts list. Thank you.

The guards are listed under the BT1000B backhoe. Part numbers 7K529-53212 and 7K529-53222 The BT1000 is for the L39 according to Messicks.

Thank you for your help

I think I looked at the BT1000A for the L45, didn't see the -B. The guards must be an addition to the newer models.

You are correct, it is. I guess people got tired of bending hydraulic lines so Kubota fashioned some guards.
I wonder if those cylinder guards would fit my L48 TLB?

Commercial backhoes had guards.
Help keeping dirt and rocks of cylinder rod and maybe a light bucket strike. You still can cause damage if not careful.

Cylinders needs attachment points.

Added steps to the guards to help me climb up and down.

Would not be too hard to fabricate from piece of 5” square tube. Need to make some for the B26. Unlike the M59, the B26 hoses to stabilizers face the rear.

Make the guard fit! you might need to drill new holes
The downside of my trying to make the guards fit is that I have absolutely zero rocks to contend with.
The largest "rock" that I have on my property would be slightly larger than a pea.
Very light sandy loam, and pure sand below, so I really do not have much of an actual need for "shin" guards.

I just bought stabilizer street pads, and I really don't need those either, because I never use my hoe on asphalt.

Do what works for you!
