I have a 2005 B7800. I recently purchased a backhoe for the tractor, it’s a 3 point mount system currently on the hoe. I’m aware that the 4974 is discontinued. What current model is the closest to the one I need. I’m not opposed to a little fab work to make it work, just don’t need another 2 week project.
Backhoe subframe BH4974
- Thread starter LEEKguide
- Start date
Current model backhoe subframes are nothing like the older subframes. Trying to make one of those work on your tractor and also a 3 point backhoe would be a larger project than just building a subframe for the backhoe
I realize it’s going to be some work. But most times it’s way easier to adapt something similar than start from scratch. If there’s a subframe that’s close I have the knowledge and skills to fit it to my machine. As for the backhoe once I have the tractor side done then the mount for that will be fairly easy.
I’m just looking for a subframe that’s similar to the one that is discontinued for my B7800. I’ve made many calls to tractor scrap yards and kubota dealers looking for the frame and have had no luck.

It would just be wild guessing to which other subframes might or might not fit, there are way too many variables.
