Kubota is the best-selling compact tractor brand in the United States, and the majority of Kubota tractors on American farms, acreages, and estates run either a Category 1 or Category 2 three-point hitch. That is good news for anyone buying linkage parts: because 3 point hitches are built to the standard ASAE S217 / ISO 730 dimensions, replacement parts are interchangeable across brands within the same category.
Jrs Farm Parts is an ISO 9001:2015-certified manufacturer in Ludhiana, India, exporting tractor linkage parts to the USA and 60+ countries. We manufacture top link assemblies, pins, balls, stabilizers, and leveling components for Category 1 and Category 2 hitches — the categories most Kubota models use.
Important: Jrs Farm Parts is an independent manufacturer. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Kubota Corporation. “Kubota” is used here only to describe general compatibility with Kubota tractors.
Which Hitch Category Does Your Kubota Use?
Most Kubota models fall into a predictable pattern. Use this as a starting point — always confirm against your tractor’s operator manual.
| Kubota Family (General) | Typical Hitch | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sub-compact models (e.g., BX family) | Limited Category 1 | Lower to the ground, less lift height than standard Cat 1 — confirm before ordering |
| Compact models (B, L families) | Category 1 | 3/4 in (19 mm) top link pin |
| Mid-size utility (Grand L family) | Category 1 / Category 2 | Some models use Cat 1, larger models Cat 2 — check pin diameter |
| Large utility / M series | Category 2 | 1 in (25 mm) top link pin |
Quick check: measure the top link pin diameter. 3/4 in = Category 1; 1 in = Category 2. If in doubt, check your operator manual or the model’s spec sheet before ordering.
Kubota Linkage Parts We Manufacture
Kubota Top Links
Top links connect the implement mast to the tractor and control implement angle. Our top link assemblies are available in Category 1 (3/4 in ball bore) and Category 2 (1 in ball bore), with forged ball ends and UNC-thread center tubes — the thread standard for North American tractors. Telescopic and ratchet-jack variants are available for quicker implement changes.
Kubota Pins and Hardware
Hitch pins, top link pins, lower link pins, linch pins, and clevis pins secure every connection in the linkage. Our pins are heat-treated for strength and available in the diameters Kubota-category hitches use — keeping a full diameter range in stock means you rarely turn a customer away.
Kubota Linkage Balls
Lower link balls and top link balls carry the implement load at each pivot point. Our hardened balls (58–62 HRC, in grades such as 16MnCr5) are designed for the bore sizes used on Category 1 and 2 lower links and are replaced regularly as they wear.
Stabilizers and Leveling Assemblies
Stabilizers stop the implement from swinging side to side — essential on compact tractors where sway can quickly reach tires and drive shafts. We manufacture chain stabilizer assemblies with turnbuckle adjusters and ratchet-jack stabilizers for Category 1 and 2 tractors, plus leveling assemblies for the adjustable lift arm.
Buying for Dealers and Distributors
If you stock linkage parts for Kubota owners, the practical reality is that Category 1 covers the majority of compact Kubota sales, with Category 2 covering mid-size and M-series models. A well-rounded inventory covers both:
- Top link assemblies in Cat 1 and Cat 2, UNC thread
- Hitch pins and linch pins across the common diameters
- Lower link balls and top link balls in Cat 1 and Cat 2 bore sizes
- Chain stabilizer assemblies and stabilizer ends
We sell wholesale to dealers, distributors, and agricultural parts suppliers. Factory-direct pricing, ~40-day export lead time, and ISO-managed quality make us a dependable supply source for the US market.
Verify Before You Order
Our parts are engineered to the standard ASAE/ISO Category 1 and 2 dimensions. Because models vary, we do not guarantee fitment for any specific Kubota model — always measure the pin diameters and link spacing on your tractor and confirm the part matches before ordering. If you are unsure, send us photos with a ruler for scale and we will help identify the right part.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these genuine Kubota parts?
No. Jrs Farm Parts manufactures aftermarket replacement parts to standard ASAE/ISO Category 1, 2, and 3 dimensions. They are designed to interchange with OEM components but are not manufactured by Kubota Tractor Corporation.
Will this top link fit my Kubota model?
If your Kubota uses a standard Category 1 or 2 hitch, the matching category part fits the standard dimensions. Because models vary, always measure your top link pin diameter and confirm the category before ordering — we do not guarantee fitment for any specific model.
How do I know which category my Kubota uses?
Measure the top link pin diameter with a caliper: 3/4 in = Category 1, 1 in = Category 2, 1-1/4 in = Category 3. Your operator manual will also state the hitch category.
Do you offer UNC and metric thread options?
Yes. Top links and top link ends are available in UNC (UNCR/UNCL, standard for North American tractors) and metric (M22-M30) threads.
Do you supply dealers and distributors?
Yes. We supply wholesale to dealers, distributors, and agricultural parts suppliers in the USA, with factory-direct pricing and standard export terms.
