I have a N329 and was wondering if I got a 3pt backhoe attachment for a Kubota if it would fit or should I look for something else?

Thanks
Mike

Most 3ph hoes will fit on any 3ph of the same class provided the lower link arms spread wide enough, which shouldn't be an issue on most compacts. You'll also need rear hydraulics and adequate flow from the pump. A 3ph-hoe mount should have a lock-down to prevent accidental raising of the 3ph--anybody in the hoe seat gets crushed between the hoe console and ROPS. Some mounts help distribute the load.

You should search the archives for articles about the possibility serious damage to tractors from use of 3ph hoes. Mine is OK; others suffer thousands in damage. ....
