I am planning to install Kubota frame stiffeners on my B7610. These are the stiffeners required before attaching a Kubota 3 pt backhoe.
The stiffeners bolt to the rear axle housings. This requires removing three bolts on each axle housing where they attach to the differential case and replacing them with studs and bolts supplied with the stiffeners. The directions that came with the stiffeners say to drain the transmission oil and remove the rear tires before installing the stiffeners.
Has anyone added these stiffeners and if so do you know why you would have to remove the rear wheels and drain the transmission oil?
Thanks,
Dave
