Just got a new (to me) B7300, missing the 3-point hitch. Could anyone give me the dimensions so I can pick up aftermarket lower arms, vertical lift linkage, top link and sway chains? Thanks.
Cat...upper link........lower links..........Lower spacing...Vertical
0......17 mm (5⁄8")...17 mm (5⁄8").......500 mm (20")
1......19 mm (3⁄4")...22.4 mm (7⁄8").....718 mm (26")....450mm 18"
2......25.5 mm (1")...28.7 mm (1 1⁄8")...870 mm (32")....600mm 24"
Yes, actually I need the LENGTH of the various components. That would be very helpful if you could measure them for me. I have a parts breakdown, so I don't think I need pictures. Thanks, James.
Length A: 26" (end to end)
Length B: 17" (end to end)
Length C: 14": (only that middle length - no threads or ends)
Length D: 13.5" (does not include any threaded portion but does include ends - basically fully closed end to end.)
Hope that makes sense. I can get better or different ones if you need tomorrow but night was closing in.
Thanks, James. That is very helpful. As I suspected, the 35" lower lift arms at TSC are way too long, would decrease my lift capacity considerably. Any chance of getting a photo of the hood prop rod? That's also missing, so I guess I'll be fabricating one of those. There doesn't seem to be anything on the bottom of the hood to connect it to. Thanks again.
No problem at all. Just have enough time before getting out the door. The rod is about 10" long and the top bracket that attaches to the hood looks spot welded.
Posters here are correct that all tractors having the same "Category" rating are basically the same dimensions (within a given specified and specific range)----at the implement end.
And furthermore IF the machines are built using SAE standards (some gray markets may not in some brands).
The hitch (ouch) is at the tractor attachment end of the 3-point.
There have been some threads here on OTT that 3-point assemblies bought on eBay and others online have not fit when attempted to install. Not only lengths but some odd angles involved at the tractor end in order to get all three points of the three 3-point segments to meet correctly in the same vertical plane to attach to the implement.
Even within Kubota or any other longline manufacturer all 3-point assemblies of the same Category type, whether by frame size or horsepower or any other measure, will not typically interchange.
Pricing a complete set from Kubota will keep you awake at nights wondering. Might find a salvage set with extensive research but low probability. Try WestKentuckyTractorParts online and others.
Example: just for curiosity I recently priced a complete 3-point assembly for one of mine (35-hp range) and it came up $1700 from my local dealer. Be here tomorrow and we'll bill you.
I went out and looked at both of mine just to refresh a memory and found that they are as different as night and day and each has a unique set of bends and twists to get the correct alignment.
If you're truly serious and want your setup "right" the only way is to use OEM parts. I'd suggest that some of the cost might be recouped in fewer headaches in the years ahead and increased value if resold.
Please post back if you go aftermarket and how it works out in your specific case.
