QA Adapter Plate Query

[DepositGuy]

Hi everyone. Kubota newbie here. I've got an L5030 with aa LA853 QA loader. I'd like to buy aa adapter plate that will attach to my QA set up so I can weld on a snow plow. I had the plow on my Kiotiand attached it by removing my bucket pins and attaching the plow to the loader frame. I'd like to take advantage of the QA set-up but can only find plates made for the smaller Kubotas. Can anyone help me out here?

You should have a standard SSQA setup on your machine, there is not a smaller on used on smaller tractors.

I thought the SSQA was a standard size? If so I bought a Titan plate and it fits my SSQA very well (I was surprised), very good pin engagement.

Thanks guys. I did message one seller and mentioned my machine & loader numbers and they told me it would not fit. I think the pins left to right is within the specs they provided but they showed the height as 16.9", I think I might be closer to 18" but I'll have to release the bucket and get a better measurement.

SSQA is SSQA, industry standard dimensions, any SSQA attachment will fit on an SSQA 'base'.
If you can weld, you don't need to buy a 'blank plate', Several here have 'rolled their own' and saved a LOT of coins doing so.

Here's the standard layout, some mounts have additional pin holes:
