    Bx2380 rear remote

    Dan, I had a chance to try to install the rear remote kit on my BX23s. I found out it is not just a problem with routing the hardlines. The valve itself interferes with the additional frame for the backhoe. I would have to notch that frame and box it in with clearance to get it in and then...

    BX23 Top Link

    The Kubota rear remote kit will not fit a BX23s due to the backhoe frame. removing part of the frame would be an option but???

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Dan, Thanks again, your ideas make the whole process much simpler. It'll be a couple months before I can accomplish this but will update when complete. Joe

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Dan, You've been a tremendous help! I had taken this picture a few trips ago to the cabin and marked it up with the info you supplied on the FEL and Rear Remote Kit. So it appears I could put a tee in the FEL Tank Return instead of making a new trans cap.

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Dan, Yes it is the BT603 with three lines. Just to clarify when you say the tank line from the loader your talking about the backhoe not the FEL? I plan to make a plastic plug to replace the existing transmission dip stick. The design would incorporate a small dip stick as well as a spot to...

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Sorry - Looking at your picture I see you show one connection being the return. That being the case what do I do with the PB connection for the backhoe?

    Bx2380 rear remote

    This looks to be very simple to do. I might try to do the female as a hard line to fit the existing position and a hose with the male to be able to plug it in if the backhoe is off. Just a question on the tank return from the backhoe. would I still have to make the fitting to go into the trans...

    BX23S Hydraulic thumb on backhoe

    The backhoe control valve I believe comes from Roquet Group company https://www.roquetgroup.com/en/products1/c/298-202p-%7C-monoblock-parallel-%7C-flow-rate-60-lmin.html They do not show a PB fitting to be able to add another valve for a hydraulic thumb but there does appear the valve has the...

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Dan, Hope I can explain. In the second diagram the existing (supply)hose #150 gets removed and is replaced with the (supply)hard line #110 in the rear remote kit diagram. I would plan to add a tee in the #110 line where I would connect the #150 hose to supply the backhoe. The Hard line #120 pipe...

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Just some additional info on my plan. I would only plan to use the backhoe connections with the backhoe or 3pt log splitter as I currently do. The rear remotes would be used with the 3pt to have tilt and trim on my box blade,York rake, or rear blade.

    Bx2380 rear remote

    Well the plan is to put the tee in the hard line between the rear remote valve and where it terminates in the FEL connections behind the R rear tire where the PB was connected for the backhoe. I then would adapt the PB hard line that was removed to feed the coupling for the backhoe. Appreciate...

    Bx2380 rear remote

    I’m in the process to install the remote kit on my Bx23s. My plan at this time is to install Ts in the supply and PB lines of the remote kit. The I plan to fabricate a new dip stick that will have a fitting for the return line as well as a smaller dip stick to be able to check fluid level. Won’t...

    BX23S Hydraulic thumb on backhoe

    Just seeing all the replies. Thought I would have gotten email notices when something was posted? Anyway, thank you for the input. I will update in the spring when I take off the snowblower and can work on my tractor. Too cold in the garage UP there right now.

    BX23S Hydraulic thumb on backhoe

    I’m trying to do the same thing on my Bx23s tlb as well as add rear remote using the kubota kit which supposedly will not work on bh models? To add the hydraulic thumb I’m trying to determine if the scv’s on the bh can modified to extend the power beyond to a new valve for the hydraulic thumb...

    Best implement for grading— new house site?

    The rear remote kit from Kubota is not compatible with the bx23s with the backhoe. I purchased the kit and plan to see if I can get it to work. The main problem is the tubes coming to the connectors interfere with the additional frame added for the backhoe from what I’ve been told. I also plan...
