i have a L3410 hst kubota and a mazzotti 230 backhoe 3 point mounted and was wondering if anyone has ever made a sub frame mount for one or know where it bolts on to the tractor for best support.

No, I sure don't. Maybe some of the engineers here can comment, but I think designing structures that contain both mild or even alloy steel and cast elements is tricky. Steel deflects under load while cast doesn't.

I think the trick would be to get to some of the load before it is transferred to cast structures on the tractor and attach it to someplace else. I'm not sure that simply reinforcing cast elements with steel would do much. I have a 3ph hoe that's fairly not very big or strong for the tractor. I use it periodically but I take care not to get into testosterone based digging. I also take care to keep all the slack adjusted out of the mount stabilizers and 3ph lock-down. It's worked OK for going on 5 years. I could turn down the relief valve pressure on the hoe valve if I worried about it much.
