kubota bh77

I've got an as-new LX3310 w/ grapple, etc. in Southern Maryland with 99 hours that I may sell to fund an upgrade. It was purchased new with a BH77 which has been stored separately, mounted 2x, and used ~3 hours for plucking a few bushes and shrubs out on the property. I'm curious on thoughts...

Hey all, I decided last fall I could really use a backhoe/mini ex for a bunch of projects around my property. Renting is complicated due to the frequent but short time I would need to dig, figured I would sell when i'm done or decide i cant live without it. These projects include: *Dig up poles...

When I purchased my new LX3310 I opted for the BH77 backhoe. The bucket literally has never been in the dirt. I removed and covered the BH a few days after I took delivery of the tractor. As I look at my longer term plans, I may just purchase a Kubota Mini-Ex moving forward. I’m just...

Has anyone had any experience with the KUBOTA MINI excavator's usefulness and strength compared to the Kubota L3800 plus BH77 or other versions of larger tractors with BH92 ? I have seen Excavators with grapples and brush cutters so figure an excavator might be a better replacement for my...

I'm thinking of buying a bh77 backhoe for my l2501. My first plan was the dealer. The complete package is 8k plus tax, I install. The salesman told me that I need to expect about a year wait. (Deal breaker) I found a used one about a 5 hour drive away. A 2015 model for $7250. Which I think is...

I’m searching for advice on the square boom spacers maybe called spring washers they are between the two main booms I have about 1/2 of play when swinging left to right will this solve problem or is there more I need to do bushings? much thanks all g i will attach a pic from the tractor view as...

I had originally decided on a BX23s for maintenance and landscaping projects in my small acreage but decided it was too small after going to the dealership. I have trenching to do and have decided in a backhoe instead of renting a mini ex. I looked at the B2601 and the LX2610 and was initially...

Can a BH77 with a mechincal thumb grab rocks like these without breaking the equipment?

I've got an l3800 with a BH77 backhoe attachment. I was doing some work for a guy and using it pretty hard and blew a hose. My hose guy was closed, so I just quit for the day. He called and told me that he had gotten a hose made and installed it for me. I dont know if there was some trash in...

I'm looking at purchasing a bh77, 16" bucket and ripper. How hard is it to switch between these? I was going to get the quick attach for the backhoe but my dealer said it's fairly easy to switch them out but I cannot find any videos of anyone doing it. Thanks.

I've got plenty of power, but noticed a wet spot this morning when I spotted working then noticed what almost looks like grease but there's no grease point I know of there. Assuming it's hydraulic.

I had a terrible time getting my BH77 back onto the tractor, like more than an hour of frustration and attempts. Yes, I know how it goes on. For those with this setup, is the U cradle at the bottom of your tractor subframe really tight with the BH and pins? And is the area around your upper...

The BH77 on my new LX3310 is driving me crazy, LOL. The little clips for the stabilizer controls rattle at idle. What’s the best way to quiet them? I could take the cover off and put a little blob of grease on each one. ?? Thanks...,.

My new LX3310 has the single seat BH77, however I can’t sit back in the seat and reach the controls (I’m 6’) Are there control handles that are perhaps 5 longer? I hoped that the knobs screwed on and I could bolt on extensions, but it feels like they are molded on. And yes, it has the correct...

Howdy y'all. I'm currently running a B3200 w/ a BH77 hoe / 12" bucket. Soil conditions here are somewhere on the order of caliche and claypan. If I take my time and do a lot of light scratching and flaking of the soil around 1-2" at a time, I can usually get about 30" deep before I'm just...

New LX3310 Which Bucket? 54" or 60"? For a new LX3310 and general use, I see Kubota offers a 54" bucket and a 60" "Light material" bucket. Which do I want? 54" seems narrow for that tractor, but perhaps its deep and appropriate. My only point of reference in real use is my...

Here are two videos where I show the seat Mod I did to give more leg room. Plus I now have a vertical angle adjustment using the PTO. Part 1 Part 2 Kubota BH77 seat bracket modification Results. MORE leg room. Part 2 (3) - YouTube Let me know what you think.

Hey everyone I am new here. I just purchased a L3901 loader and backhoe BH77, The backhoe control arms were to short. So here is a little video showing the longer control arms installed and differences.

Anyone have this problem with their BH77 backhoe? All has been working well for 5 years. For some reason the Hydraulic cylinder for extending the arm has stopped working. All other cylinders are working bucket curl, raise and lower boom, stabilizers and left right are all working properly...

I have a L2501HST with the BH77 backhoe, which has a permanently mounted subframe on the tractor. I was all set to order Kubota factory rear remotes (1 regular, one float detent) and the Kubota Top-N-Tilt kit for this tractor, when I saw a note on my original sales invoice that the BH77 is not...

Looking to buy the BH77 bachoe to put on my L2501. I already have a BX25D but I want more "Umph" on stumps than the BX25 provides Some questions: 1. Can you have one person on the backhoe seat and another on the tractor seat to move it along as you dig? 2. Do you have to remove all the 3...

After initially receiving a defective unit, I finally got my new BXpanded Kubota BH77 backhoe quick attach adapter installed tonight. As a repeat customer of BXpanded, I had very high expectations for the quick attach bucket adapter. Unfortunately, I feel a bit disappointed because the build...

Sorry duplicate post

Guys, I recently purchased my second Kubota, a brand new 2019 B2650 with the BH77 backhoe. My previous machine was a fairly new, 2017 BX23S. I purchased both machines primarily for the backhoe to do ditch work around my property so I have lots and lots of prior backhoe experience at this point...

All hydraulic controls work fine except the arm stick down as I知 trying to mount the BH77 to the tractor and need to raise it up to put the top pins in. I can bring the boom up, and then when I try down, pressure is released and it goes down but not enough pressure to extend the boom arm down. I...

WOW, I finally finished my install of the BH77 Subframe (Part # BH4988) for my L3200 HST. I will tell you it was a Pain in the BUTT as the $757 crate of parts didn't come with any instructions. With a little help from forum users here, a few bad YouTube videos and a whole lot of guessing, I...

Got a Kubota L3200 HST and have the chance to purchase a BH77 Backhoe for it really cheap...... but is having a Backhoe attachment for this tractor really worth it. Anyone have any experience with this type of attachment?

I am looking at a used BH77 backhoe for my B2920 Kubota. It is currently installed on a B2710 with a BH4974 sub frame. I searched for a few hours yesterday but could not confirm this combination will definitely fit my B2920. Anyone know for sure?

Hey guys i have an opportunity to buy a bh77 backhoe attachment from 2011, i know i will have to buy the subframe kit for the tractor side but will a bh77 from 2011 work fine with a subframe kit for a 2017 L3901,, does any know if they have changed much over that amount of time, also will the...

How would these compare in ability to just dig a hole? Not a trench or moving around doing myriad work tasks...Just a single hole.

Started an earlier thread about prices and here is a L3901 quote a relative just received... At 40k I asked them to send it to me... I figured it is at least 10k too high and it turns out the math doesn't add up. $2100 Freight and Delivery on a 270 hour machine also sounds strange. But...

I tried searching for this, but with no luck. My situation is when I have my backhoe attachment on my Kubota L3901 it hits the ground while trying to load it on a trailer. I've used two different types of equipment trailers. The first I borrowed which was a 20' equipment trailer with dovetail...

Would it be possible to put a swivel backhoe seat on an L2501 with a BH77? It looks like there is a small brace that goes between the fenders that would need to be removed. Anyone with any thoughts? Thanks, Bill

If someone here has an L4701 with the BH92 Backhoe, could you tell me how high the top of the BH92 is for travel/parking? I'm trying to figure out how high of a garage door I would need. Would also like to get the same info for a B2650 with the BH77 Backhoe. If you could also let me know what...

Just installed my new BXPANDED Quick-On. Could have used this years ago. Swapping between the bucket and the MI&E ripper was a complete pain before the Quick-On, especially with having to line up the thumb, so I'm looking forward to getting a whole lot more use out of the ripper now that it is...

My backhoe was detached and not used all winter. I went to hook it up today and was having trouble with the connector from the backhoe to the tractor, it wouldn't seat and lock in no matter how hard I pushed on it. Same problem with the tractor connector trying to connect to the female on the...

Hello all, I'm interested in a used bh77 backhoe on Craigslist, the owner says it's from a 2011 kubota, my question is with the proper subframe will it fit and work on a 2017 L series, is it the same as a brand new bh77, thanks

There is a BH77 for sale on Denver Craigslist. Don't see the BH77 or the BH92 backhoes for sale used very often. (Don't know the seller, this is about 180 miles from me.) Kubota BH77 Backhoe Attachment - heavy equipment - by owner - sale

UPDATE 4/15/2022: Well, after 4 years running without the backhoe frame extensions, I decided it was time to add them back in. The cramped platform and tiny seat just became too uncomfortable for me to deal with as I get older. The ONLY benefit to moving the backhoe closer to the cab was the...

I'm looking for someone in TBN land that might have the BH77 mounted on one of the following: L2800, L3400, or L3700 I'm looking for the seat post height measurement. I want to make a modification to my setup, and it looks like the seat post on those models may be shorter than my seat post...

Hey everyone, I'm waiting on delivery of a new L3901hst with BH77 backhoe. My current L3901DT had the landpride 3rd function kit that I installed. I'm getting ready to pull that whole 3rd valve kit off the old tractor to install on the new tractor with the BH77 once it arrives. Has anyone ever...

Boom cylinder is drooping on my Kubota BH77 backhoe on a 2008 Kubota L3400 HST with 600 hours. There is no fluid leaking anywhere. I put one of those blue pills in the hydraulic reserve, but it still droops overnight. Haha... When digging after it warms up it won't lift the arm and bucket up. I...

I have a Kubota L3901 w/FEL & BH77 factory back hoe and am looking for a narror bucket for ditching. Currently have a 16" bucket. Does anyone know if a bucket, Kubota or aftermarket, is made and where I might locate it?Kubota says a 10" width bucket is the smallest they offer. Location is...

Had someone that I know call me to ask if I wanted to buy a like new BH77 backhoe for my 3540. I beleive that it came off of a smaller tractor and at this time, I dont think that it comes as a complete kit, Just the backhoe itself. What else will I need to buy to make this work?

Can the hydraulic line going to a BH77 backhoe on a L3901 be used to power some other implement when the backhoe is off the tractor? When the backhoe is off, the line going to the backhoe is looped back into the connector on the tractor the line from the backhoe goes to. Sorry but I'm pretty...

I just ordered the Quick-On bucket attachment conversion and a trenching bucket from BXpanded for my Kubota BH77. Since I already have a ripper tooth and the factory 12" bucket and have the trencher bucket coming, the Quick On should make changing buckets/tools much easier. I may cut the...

Was digging a stump out today and the stabilizer arm broke and the cylinder rod snapped. Sort of expected this to happen at some point as they seem undersized for the amount of stress the BH77 can put on them. The tractor gets pushed and pulled around by the backhoe too easily, which puts a lot...

Have had my tractor for 1 1/2 years, works well and gets the job done. Been using the backhoe all this time. Purchased a few implements to help with a clearing project, so finally removed the backhoe today. Went to install the 3 pt arms, and have run into a huge snag. Unless, Im totally missing...

Hello, Does anyone know for sure if you can configure a L3560 with a LA805 loader and BH77 backhoe? On kubotas website it says you can. Dealer is not positive but thinks with the 805 loader you have to go with the larger backhoe. The website will not let you choose the BH92 with the LA555 but...

I'm shopping to get a trailer to transport my B3200 with the FEL and BH (BH77) mounted. Will a 16 foot flatbed trailer handle this OK or do I really need to go to an 18 foot trailer? I prefer to keep the trailer size as small as possible keeping safety and load distribution in mind. Any...

I am looking at buying a backhoe for my L3901. Does anybody have experience with a woods BH80x on a similar sized tractor? I know the BH77 is a good backhoe but I think a hydraulic thumb would be a great time saver over a mechanical. I would appreciate any input from owners or users of either...

Hi, Just purchased a Kubota B2650 with the BH77 and decided to order some rear remotes for it, after talking to the dealer they called me back and said the factory kit (B5340) has a note that says it can't be installed if it has a backhoe. Not having one to compare with or a part to test fit...

Have a 2014 L3200 tractor with less 200 hours and a BH77 that maybe has 5-7 hours on it. When I ordered the backhoe 8 month ago from the Kubota dealer I was told that the l3200 and BH77 with a 16 inch bucket worked very well together. I told the dealer I would be using it to dig out smaller pine...

Fist of all, I would like to thanks all of you who responded to my previous posting on what do I need. You can look at it here : http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/buying-pricing-comparisons/342999-need-experienced-user-advice.html Quick recap, I have 90 acres, 96% woods. I need a...

Cylinder leaks at cylinder to adapter threads. Hose connection appears fine. 36.5 hours. Adapter appears to be 3/8 jic x 3/8 nptf male. Nptf appears to have white Teflon tape on threads. Anyone have better source for adapter? Better thread sealant for sudt? Actual known sizes? Also posted in...

My cylinder is leaking at the cylinder to adapter threads. I downloaded messicks parts breakdown but adapter is not identified. It connects Orange Hose #6 in 030 position to cylinder. It appears to have white teflon tape in threads. I have had tractor for 1.5 years. I'd like to fix it myself if...

I have a brand new B2650 with a BH77 backhoe. I've noticed that the boom cylinder and the dipperstick cylinder get very hot to the touch after about 20-30 minutes of use. When they get this hot the backhoe seems to lose a bit of its power. I sent it back to the dealer to see if there were any...

Has anybody found a greasable pivot pin that will fit in the lower pivot for the thumb on a BH77 with the factory thumb? I just went to use my thumb today, after not having used it for a good year and a half - and the thing seemed like it was welded in place. After finally beating it open with...

I have a BH 77 that I bought new 4 months ago and the second time It was used it broke the pin that goes through the bucket. This is the pin that has a square tab on one side and the bolts drops through on the other side to keep it from coming out with a grease fitting in the end. I call the...

Had the new B2650 delivered on Wed. Dealer showed me how to take the hoe on and off. After he left I noticed some hyd. fluid on the plate below the controls of the hoe. Upon looking closer I saw a drip from the little hyd. contol box. I did manage to get a wrench in there but is extremely tight...

Here's my situation. I bought a B2650 ROPS last spring along with a BH77 backhoe. I like it well, but after a cold winter, I've decided a cab model might be just the thing. My dealer want's $12,000 difference to trade mine in for a B2650 CAB model. Looking at spending that kind of money has...

As delivered new, the bottom dipper stick pin (the one that goes through the mechanical thumb pivot, the bucket holes, and the bottom most hole in the dipper stick) was quite difficult to remove or reinstall when changing buckets. I should have inspected it more carefully, but wrongly assumed...

I have a B3200HSD with the LA504 with 60" bucket and BH77 with 12" bucket and thumb. I am trying to figure out the total weight. From the manuals, I get 1786 for the tractor, 708 for the FEL and Bucket, but I cannot find any information on the weight of the BH77. I found 71 lbs for the 12"...

Hi all. I've been enjoying my B2650 for a few weeks now and the backhoe attachment finally arrived this week and was installed. I was highly disappointed when I plopped down into the seat only to be greeted with a bone-jarring thud! The seat was one of the features that I liked about he...

Hi im installing rear remotes on my b3200 with backhoe and was wondering uf anyone has any pics on the hydrulic lines set up the install instruction are not very clear when it comes to that. I have the valve with the pb port assuming that now runs into the back hoe connection. But were does the...

Hi all, I'm looking at a L-series, the seller of which is confused about the "model year" of the tractor, i.e., the date upon which it went into service. (As most of us know, unlike cars, Kubotas do not have specific "model years"--rather, the date recorded in the Kubota dealership database...

I live with soft soil, most of my digging is trenching for water removal, do not do deep digging and have removed the teeth that came with the BH77 on my 16" bucket, 4 or 5 of them. This allows for smooth bottom of the trench. When I do dig I'm worried that over time I will start to ware the...

How many grease points are there on the BH77? I counted 21 this time around but swear I've found 22 in the past! :-) Thx Mark

Kubota's webpage lists the smallest BH77 backhoe bucket size as 10". Are smaller sizes available (8" or 6"), or are their ways to dig a narrower trench than 10"?

Anyone now about the ansung backhoes good or bad thanks

I'd like to adapt a BH77 mechanical thumb to a KX008 excavator. Is there an owner of a BH77 backhoe that could provide me with the outside width of the BH77 bucket where it attaches to the stick with the main pin, or if you have the Kubota 6 position mechcanical thumb, the inside dimension of...

I got a new B3200 last fall with a BH77 backhoe. When I dropped the backhoe for the winter I had a great deal of difficulty getting one of the pins that holds the backhoe to the subframe out. I tried raising and lowering the boom, raising and lowering the outriggers all in an effort to get the...

I'm sure I could get one thru my dealer - just wondering if anybody sells them online so I can get one ordered now instead of waiting until the next time the dealer is open. I've looked on Messick's and done some Google searching - but I'm not getting any hits. Nobody seems to have them listed...

Here's some background I had posted in a different thread: 2011 Kubota B3300SU with BH77. Purchased used 10/13 with 19.8 hours on it. Had a leaking hose on BH - replaced it 11/13 & didn't have an opportunity to use the BH over the winter. I was about to attach my new Bro-Tek thumb a few...

1 and 1/2 years after purchasing my L3200 with BH77 backhoe, I finally did what I should have done when I bought it......I got the Mechanical Thumb for the backhoe!!! here are a few pics of it in the box and after unpacking. last night I went ahead and took the bucket loose for the installation...

I was about to attach my new Bro-Tek thumb when I realized my bucket was curling with just it's weight & gravity! I did have to replace a hose on it last fall just after I got it as it had a hole. I haven't really used it since replacing the hose. Could it just be air in the system? I don't see...

Title says it all. I realize it may be an involved & expensive modification, but has anyone seriously considered doing this? I can probably think of more cons to actually pulling it off, but not being a hydraulics expert, I know it's possible, but is it even worth further consideration?

I have a leak in the hydraulic hose that controls the bucket on my Kubota BH77 Backhoe. I've disconnected both ends (trying to catch the fluid) and I'm trying to figure out how to remove the hose to take it for repair/replacement. I'm having a ***** of a time getting it to move. It's in the...

Hello. I am having a terrible time getting the hydraulic lines connected from backhoe to Kubota. They go all the way in but will not lock, anyone have any idea how to fix this? The driveway is in shambles!

Well it finally happened, the pin that holds the two cylinders on the boom broke Wednesday night. I latched on to a rock in the ditch trying to pry it loose. I was working the bucket, boom and dipper at the same time, which had worked many times before to pry a rock loose. I heard a loud crack...

Where can i find buckets for my BH77 i have a 16" but i want a 9" and a 24" as well We are doing a pond and i want to dig faster, will the BH77 handle a 24" bucket in firm dirt?

I've had my new B3200 with the BH77 backhoe for 2 months now. There seems to be a small leak coming form the control valve. Really difficult to see exactly where. A technician came out and tightened thing up and it has lasted for a few days. Now it's leaking again. It seems to leave onto...

I'm wondering if anybody knows the answer to this question. Would the quick attach backhoe bucket setup from a B26 backhoe - fit on a BH77 backhoe (on a B or L series tractor)? And would the hydraulic thumb setup from a B26 hoe - work on the BH77 backhoe. I'm thinking of buying either a B or...

After lots of research, hemming and hawing, and a little bit of second guessing, the new tractor arrived this morning. We're getting the monsoon treatment right now, so it needs to dry out a little before putting it to work, but I'm excited. Ended up going with the L3200 HST 4x4 with loaded...

Twice I created oil leaks on the BH77. I was working in a muddy area putting in drainage ditches and mud and sticks would work up under the swing cylinders. This would cause the rear fittings on the swing cylinders to work loose when using the swing. The first time I just tightened them up and...

Hi. New to forum. Have a quote for new 2011 L3800 HST with QA FEL 66" bucket, R4s (rears filled), BH77 with mech thumb, 12 and 24" buckets. $27 delivered. Good price? I believe it is. Also would like opinions of BH bucket size. Get the 12 for stumps, etc. Wide bucket for ditch cleaning...

My L3800 TL became a TLB last week. I installed the BH77 myself, which was pretty well straight forward. Removing the rear wheels makes installing the sub-frame easier but can be done with the wheels on. Total installation time including a coffee break or two was about 2 1/2 hours. I just had...

I'm looking for someone who has a technical manual / repair manual on the Kubota BH77 backhoe. I suspect my dipperstick cylinder's relief valve is set too low, so I would like to find out what PSI it should be as well as what the PSI should be for the other cylinders. Is this also what the...

I just took delivery of a b3200 504 loader and a bh771 week ago.Day for the first time went to go play with it everything worked ok untill i went to go use bbh to dig a small hole to burry ashes from bunch of papers i burned dipstick does not move at all.Everything else works great but not the...

I know backhoes are not meant to lift but i tried to rip a 4x4 fence post out of the ground with the backhoe and it would not do it, and it only had 3 bags on concrete in the hole. I figured it would lift it right out my 5000 lb fork lift lifted 4 at once out of the ground. weak

I'm looking at an L3800HST with a BH77. Curious if anyone can tell me how much effort/time it takes to remove the 3 point and attach the hoe? Planning on using the hoe 90% of the time and a bush hog the other 10%. I test drove a B3300SU with a BH76 (I think) and it appeared to be a very smooth...

New tractor owner, recently purchased an L3800 w/ FEL and BH77. I also bought a couple of attatchments I'm itching to try out (bush hog and chipper). The BH came attatched to the tractor via the sub frame and is supposed to be fairly easy to take off and put back on. When the tractor was...

Will a BH77 fit on a B3030 Cab? Thanks

On another thread I noticed this picture showing the lower link arms removed when the backhoe was mounted. I believe this is a BH77 mounted on a B3300SU tractor. Is this true of all models? I'm expecting a L3540 and BH77 next week and never thought / realized switching from backhoe to box blade...

Anyone with a BH77 know what size the hydraulic quick disconnects are....3/8", 1/2" ??

i was wondering what was a decent price to expect to pay for a new backhoe attach Bh77. i have backhoe on my b7800 but not sure which model it is. possibly looking at different tractor with same setup i have>

Question for someone with a BH77 or any hydraulics gurus. I want to put two or three rear remotes on my L3400 that I'm waiting on delivery. Once the backhoe is removed in theory I could quick connect the supply and return for the rear remotes to where the backhoe quick connects...does that make...

Well, somehow :confused: I managed to break my brand new BH77 the very first time using it. :( Not sure how as I was just digging the dirt around a stump that I was planning on removing. Thing is, I didn't even start trying to rip the stump out yet...so it wasn't working the hoe very hard...

I've seen threads here saying that the LA463 will fit the new L3200/3800, but are the new backhoes also interchangeable with the older loader.
