Exactly what I am looking for but can’t seem to find a set made to fit Kubota’s BT1970 quick attach coupler. Does anyone know if a set for a particular excavator is interchangeable?

Understood. You may have to ask a dealer. Secondly, see if any buckets for your B26 are shared with a mini-ex. You may be able to see if they call for the same bucket P/N under options.

If you can get some measurements, I can check my buckets.

Unfortunately there isn't any real standardization on excavator/TLB QA buckets, you need to do some work to see if things fit.

I checked Kubota’s website and didn’t find any excavators using the same quick attach backhoe bucket (BT1973) as used on the B26 TLB. I am hoping that someone out there has found ears that fit this setup (BT1970 quick attach coupler).

I'm in the same boat with my M59 QA, compatible with nothing. I lucked out and bought a set of ears collecting dust on the dealership shelf for a good price. I made a CAD profile of the ears and I can get them laser cut now for my projects.

There’s tons of ears available (Amazon, eBay, etc.) for just about everything. I am hoping that someone out there has found ears that fit this setup (BT1970 quick attach coupler).
