But, remember.. While Frame mount is always better.. some frame's are not built to take the stresses given by what your attaching. I know when I got the BH for my L3130 the subframe kit was more than adding the attachments for the hoe. It includes much stronger (and larger) frame rails on both sides. That's one of the reasons you can't add a MMM to an L-series with a frame mounted hoe.

I say this only because my brother added an aftermarket hoe to his Yanmar and broke the thing in half (yes, the tractor) pulling concrete up from an old section of driveway.

Snapped it like a stick.

Ask your dealer which one Kubota will warranty if there is an issue.

I went through the same quandry when I decided I wanted a hoe for my B-7800.I was within a hair of ordering a Korean three point unit but talked to my wife who is much smarter than I am ,and not as cheap, so we went and talked to the Kubota dealer and ended up buying the BH-75.It's a lot more money but in my opinion well worth it.The subframe assy. is very impressive and after 50 hours of work,I am very happy with my decision.
