I have a Kubota B7100HST with a Kubota 1630C loader with a std. bucket. The bucket has peculiar weld-ons on it, one set on each corning consisting of a D type ring, a bolt holder and a loose pin standing in a welded base. I have seen these on other B7100 loaders for sale on the internet so I suspect they are not one offs but rather Kubota made. Does any know what these are used for?

There are used for the bars to remove the loader from the tractor.

Here's a picture of how the bars attach to the loader to unmount it from the tractor. This is a BF400 but very similar to yours. Note the bars pointed to by the black arrow are stored (and provide structural rigidity) when mounted to the tractor where the yellow arrows are. IMG_1665_M.jpg
