Kubota L3710 loader question

[handcuff]

Can I put other (newer/different) loaders on my L3710, other than the la681/682? specifically, I was looking at the 723. I can't seem to find the 681's around for sale, and need a FEL at the upper end range of my tractor.

Id also consider off-brands, if that's a good option (woods?), but don't know where to start.
Thanks,

a quick search for the la723 loader shows it mounted on a l3010, l3130, and a l3830.

I assume the 3010 is comparable to your L3710 as far as mounting. Even if you have to make a few minor changes, I don't think it would be anything insurmountable.

Groo, thanks for the link and heads up on that! I dont have much tractor experience and trying to make good decisions. I found a new LA682 for $4700 but thats painful, so i was looking for used/options.

i havent tried swapping around the FELs before. The 3010 and the 3710 take the same FELs (the 481 and the 681 or 682). My assumption is that if the 723 fits on the 3010, it would also fit on the 3710, correct? does it matter that my 3710 has a cab and/or a belly mower?

Thanks again for the help...like I said, I just don't want to make an idiot decision.
