B2301 Loader Fell Off !

[LarJea]

I use my B2601 for woods work and also for cutting roadside brush with a small swingout flail mower and it seems up to the task. I did have to add 2 1/2" spacers to the rear wheels with vegetable oil filled tires though.

Well, do with it as you wish. I am from the school of using a tool for what it is entended for, much like that horse your referring to.

This is a complete LA435 Loader off and subframe off my kubota B2601. While clearing some brush it somehow came unlatched and smashed over onto the brush guard and hood(see pix). My kubota insurance totalled the Loader and I got a new one, minus the bucket. There's no visible damage to this Loader and frame is still straight (why they totalled it neither I nor the dealership know. A new complete Loader is $5300. This is the for THE LOADER ONLY NOT A COMPLETE TRACTOR.

Anyway, it looks like other people have had similar issues of the Kubota loaders coming loose while using.

According to the Facebook post, no actual damage to the loader.
