Anybody have experience with 3-BL8069 wights? My local dealer is trying to sell me a bracket, I didnt have them order a bracket. They weights they sold me wasn't marked with part number I took them back they didn't fit under the battery.


Tractor looks like will take 3 with no bracket just bolt kits and threaded rod.
Kubota build site prices out with no bracket , Just parts BL8069,Bl8049 and 1-BL8013 threaded rod.

Most small Kubota tractors (exception being B3350, despite what is stated in Operator's Manual) will accept 3 or 4 front weights mounted onto the front frame without a weight bracket which will accept more weights.

Not individually familiar with your B2601 but such provisions should be detailed in the Operator's Manual.

Be advised that front weight brackets are a PITA as you will likely need to remove both weights and bracket to mount the FEL.

This is from the B2601 WSM (doesn't list p/n of weights though):
Front End Weights (option)
The front end weights can be attached to the bumper.
NOTE
[For installation of up to 3 weights]
Besides the weight, mounting bolt kit(s) are required for mounting the weight.

[For installation of up to 5 weights]
Besides the weight, a front weight bracket and mounting bolt kit(s) are required for mounting the weight.

Edit: The WSM appears to be duplicate of operators manual even with same picture of weights mounted.
