Does anyone know if the Kubota BL4690 Backhoe is made by Kubota or is it re-badged from a US vendor?

I'm looking at a used one and want to see if I can get a sub-frame for my non-Kubota Tractor.

Thanks,

PB

I believe it is made by Kubota in their Georgia factory.

Thanks Mad! If I go for it, I think I'll have a welding project in the sub-frame.

PB,
Why not get a sub-frame and brackets from your tractor manufacture, then modify it to work with the Kubota hoe. That way, you won't have anywhere near as much fabricating to do.

The BL4690 is a 3point hitch mounted BH. Even if you knew who made it, they wouldnt have a subframe for it and you would still have to fabricate something.

If he did it the way I was suggesting, all he would have to modify would be where the Mahindra Sub-frame met up with the frame of the Kubota backhoe.

Agreed. I was just sorta expanding on what you said. That would be the only way I see it working since the BH doesnt really have a subframe available.

That's all right, my post wasn't very concise.
I really wish that when we post that it would show which post we were referring to like the old software did.
