LX2610 grille guard interfe

[Lug66]

Just an fyi item. I recently had the Land Pride 3rd function installed on my LX2610, cab version, along with the STB1060 front blade. I noticed that under certain conditions the hydraulic hoses were contacting the grille guard near the solid hose crimp for the fitting.
The solution was to move the guard back towards the hood. Since the owner/salesman stopped by to get a better view point he helped me relocate the guard to its correct position. The pictures show three holes per side. The owner said he’s going to comb the lot to check for correct positioning of grille guards.
This only becomes a problem when the 3rd function is installed.

Here is my LX2610 with the Kubota 3rd function kit if it helps. However, if moving your guard closer to the grille prevents it from contacting the 3rd function hoses and doesn't create any additional problems, you should be fine.

There’s a big difference in design between a Land Pride and the Kubota 3rd function. That’s why I was specific about the manufacturer. Kubota connectors run parallel with the crossbar and Land Pride is perpendicular to the crossbar. Yes, moving the guard made a big difference in preventing damage and the hood opens/closes easily.
