Loader Bolt on hook measurment.

[djs2500]

Hey there, I have a BX1870 with the LA203A FEL, does anyone know the correct size to order from Ken's Bolt on Grab Hooks <<Kubota Hooks>> Currently I am away from my BX so I can not measure it, but want to order these today.

Thank you
Dave

Yeah tried that route first, he was not familiar with the LA203A FEL. I will measure it once home. I just was hoping that someone knew so I could place the order early.
Thank you.

My BX1870 LA203A FEL (according to Ken's measurement "how to" video) would take the 1 5/8" hooks.

Oops, sorry - that possibility hadn't occurred to me.

Thank you very much!

The LA203A seems to be a rare beast! I do have a list of many Kubota loaders, but that particular one isn't on it...quite often I have no idea what equipment customers have when they order so I can't add to the list frequently.

I also hesitate to give measurement advice for fear of being wrong and then having to deal with return and re-shipping fees. I always ask customers to verify because there have been some inconsistency in a few Kubota buckets-for example on the LA240 loader, I've had customers order both the 1-7/16" and the 1-5/8" ones for this loader, why I do not know.

FYI, for those that are curious, the most popular ones are the 1-5/8" hooks, at the least popular are the 2-1/2" ones.

Appears that this LA203A FEL is 1' 5/8. Ken I will order these from you.

I checked Messick's site parts diagrams
The LA203A is on the BX1870
The LA243A is on the BX2370 & BX2670
The LA240A is on the BX25D
All three of these loader us the same bucket.

I have putting the Ken's Bolt on hooks to good use on my BX2370.
