Hi there all new member here just wondering if anyone can help me with installing rear hydraulic lines on my Kubota b7100? I do have a factory loader already and is factory plumbed in. I'm planning on attaching a backhoe soon too.

There is a knob under the front of the seat that can be turned to operate rear hydraulics and shut off the 3 pt hitch lift arms. You will still need to put in a return line to the reservoir possibly with a T.

Not all B7100's have the referenced knob under the seat. I have 2 B7100's a 1977 & a 1978 and neither have that knob. I am not sure if it was an option and just not put on my tractors or if was installed on later model b7100.

I guess pics of the top of the transmission in front of the seat would help with identification of possible hydraulic ports.

My '79 does.

The OP mentioned that he had a loader...
on my setup (not factory by any means) the loader spool valve has a plug marked "BYD" and that is shorthand for power beyond port. You remove that plug and run your auxillary pressure hose to the rear. The return line will go to your larger return hose near the switchover valve, which I imagine you must have if you have a loader.

I forgot to mention- the specs for the b7100 claims hydraulic system is between three and four gallons per minute, which is not very much. I wonder how it will handle a backhoe? Let us know

Have you any pics of the BYD and the return?
