Kubota LA402ST Loader - to add Quick Hitch

[AdamOrange]

Hello

I have a Kubota LA402ST 'Pin on style' loader & bucket.

Looking to add an adaptor to make it Euro 8 quick hitch (As most things seem to be Euro 8 these days).

Most of the adaptors I can find (like attached), appear to have 2 sets of mounting pinholes. My loader being on the small side and for the compact tractor, I assume I use the 2 lower 2nd pins?

My bucket measurements are:

• 97cm between the top pins (inside of pins)
• 110cm between the top pins (outside of pins)
• 30cm between top & bottom bins (outside of pins) - 28cm to pin centres

Questions:

1. Should this adaptor fit my loader? or should I be looking for a different one?
   • Are all tractor loader pins the same thickness? 30mm
   • The current distance between the top & bottom pins is 28cm (pin centre) where the adaptor would be 31.5cm (pin centre) - is this ok?
2. Are there any adaptors to stay away from? and any you would recommend?

Thank you in advance!
