Anyone have the Kubota backhoe quick coupler?

Thanks for the photo MBradey

Now that I see that, it wouldn't be that big a deal to modify my L45 buckets to take the pin and eliminate the PITA bolt and wedge. Unfortunately I have three buckets plus the ripper so it would be quite a bit of work. I guess I'll have to see how much wrenching I'm prepared to do rather than take the time and money to modify my current setup. The L39 sure looks like a better solution to me.

Regards,

Lauren

My L39 looks to be a different qa setup. Can anyone tell me what buckets or brackets I need to look for that will fit this? I’m looking for 12” and 36” buckets or brackets and buy buckets to put the brackets on. Thanks

Look similar. Don’t know if these would work. The L39 and L45 used the same bt1000 backhoe?

Bought qa ears for B26 from dealer. The B26 qa buckets are much heavier construction than the pin on. It’s a quick and strong design much like your L39.

M59 has pin on bucket with thumb. Not sure what I need to go qa. Even though the eBay listing has bt1200 listed it doesn’t say M59. Lots of ears for excavators.

Thank you for the info! I have contacted the seller!

I had Werk-Brau Co. in Findlay, Ohio make a 24” ditch bucket with a bolt on cutting edge for my BH92. They had all the specifications I just had to let them know I had the factory Kubota quick coupler model BT4550 quick coupler installed on it.

The eBay link can only do the l47 model and not the l39, on to the next. Might have to make my own somehow

I’ll shoot them an email and see if they can make me brackets. Seeing as the make
The buckets for kubota, they should be able to source the brackets for me! Thanks!

Turns out werk-brau does make the brackets by request only. But at $730 a piece plus freight and tax, i’ll be making my own haha!

Wow, I only paid $1000.00 for the Complete 24” bucket with a bolt on cutting edge.

Yeah I found 2 buckets, a 12” and a 39” smooth edge for a total of $650 just needed the brackets! Well more hassle than anything now, probably didn’t save money now haha
