L3560 with LA805 and BH77

[BButkus51]

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 will let you choose either backhoe with the LA805.

The reason I'm asking is I want to purchase a L3560 with the larger 805 loader and be able to use my fathers BH77 backhoe that is already in the family.

I have been all over the web and cannot find any info or pictures that help me.

Any help is appreciated!

Yes I just bought a 3560 with the L805 load and the tractor I traded n had the BH77 on it and the dealer tried to get me to keep the Backhoe. If it was me I would go with the bigger backhoe BH92. Don't know how the BH 77 would work on the L3560 since it has better hydraulics than my L3200, but it sucked on it.

I ordered my L3560 with the L805 FEL. It is pretty heavy at 1,279 pounds WITHOUT A BUCKET. I almost always mount ballast on the 3-Pt. when doing loader work.

I do not have a Backhoe on my (faultless, wonderful) machine.

Welcome to TBN!
If I already had the BH77 hoe available, I'd be doing exactly what you are trying to do. Those puppies are $pendy.

What I discovered, when buying a backhoe for my L3240, is that the fitment seemed to depend on getting the correct little end fittings/adapters that go onto the ends of the big pieces. My tractor was from one of the first L3240 production runs, which replaced the L3130, but I bought the backhoe 7 years later. Within those 7 years, the L3240 model went through many minor changes, including the introduction of the -1, -2 & -3 packages. The backhoe model also changed, from the BH-90 to the BH-92. My dealer's salesman (John Rebillard, at R&S in Torrington) spent a lot of time in his office, pouring over his wall of Kubota 3 ring binder notebooks, on-line parts diagrams, and calls to Kubota to make sure that he got the right bits & pieces to mount the backhoe & sub-frame to my tractor/loader configuration.

After all the dust had settled, the installation went very well, and I'm very, very happy with the results. But I know that the reason the install went so well is mostly due to how hard my dealer was willing to research the details. Of course, my dealer was partly motivated by the sale of the backhoe, but your dealer doesn't have that incentive. If you can't get a solution through the dealer, then try to find someone on TBN that has an L3560/LA805/BH77 combination & see if they can give you the part numbers for all the bits & pieces from their bill of sale.
