BX2380 three point hitch

[lakeside]

I just pulled the trigger on a new BX2380 with a front mounted blower. Does anyone know if the tractor comes with all the three point hitch parts as standard equipment (like my B26) or do I have to buy a kit?

I would have just used the Class 1 three point hitch from my B26 but I need it for another implement.

Shouldn't your on-order BX2380 come with the 3 pitch arms? 3-pt arms typically come with tractors, excluding TLB.

Unless the policy has changed, I'd expect you should be ready to connect to almost any cat 1 implement.

If you have to buy the 3-pt arms and they are not available as a kit like with the TLB models start saving.

Call your dealer and ask?

Yes, all rear 3-pt links included. Enjoy your new tractor!

Thanks for the information. Yes, I could have called the dealer but I was afraid the dealer, seeing I wasn't sure of the tractor came with a hitch, could have said "sorry, the hitch is an option"

Not that I distrust my dealer, who I've been dealing with for years, but "trust, but verify" as someone once said.:laughing:

Could call dealer and ask the ole' leading question (a.k.a. "loaded question", presumption, etc..):
"Hey, this is Mr. Lakeside who just ordered the BX2380, are the 3 point hitch arms that come with that painted black or orange? I'm buying attachments and wanted them to match." ....or maybe ask if 3 PTH is really Cat 1 or Cat 0, or pin sizes, or if the stabilizer arms are turn-buckle or slotted, etc...

Good reminder to the OP, if you change rear implements much, ditch the worthless turnbuckles, and order a set of Hodge telescopic stabilizers. Why Kubota doesn't offer something similar as an option for the BX is a real mystery.

Update:

My BX2380 was delivered yesterday. The three point hitch was there but the top link was missing. Just before the driver pulled away, I noticed the missing link. The driver delivered it last night which makes it really important to do an inspection. I think it was just an honest oversight on the part of the dealer but the story could have been different if I hadn't notice the missing link for a few days.
