Telescoping lift arms

[minthral]

Dang so I called dealer to try get L4060 3PT hitch parts on my L47. It sounds like it will work, however the parts cost nearly 3k! That's just the lower arms, buckles, levers, and telescoping stabilizers...I'd reuse my top and side links.

The telescoping stabilizers are about 250 so might just get that for now.

EDIT: delete NVM... im wrong. There is no way to get the whole assembly... you gotta piece it together. Once doing that, you're at 2k+ cost.

It would be so nice, but I don't think it makes sense to spend 2k on this...

I called seller of "E-" parts and they're basically aftermarket clones made in Turkey. They over 50% cheaper than OEM Kubota (also made over seas, mostly in Asian countries), but some of the parts are not in stock, though plan to be made though with no ETA.

So basically aftermarket parts could eventually bring the price down to around $750 maybe.

Kub doesn't change the design of its 3 point components very often and Grand L's have come with telescoping links for many years. So something from an older tractor series might fit. Still pricey but probably less than new. They occasionally show up on ebay and you might have luck checking out tractor salvage yards. What condition they might be in is anyone's guess.
