Barely functional, low quality, manyusless parts included
UPDATE 4/7/2020:
Take a look at the picture. After upgrading several of the parts with farm store parts the arm on the right just bent to a degree of uselessness when mowing. This sad, pathetic excuse for a piece of equipment should have never left the factory. Made of inferior steel. Do not buy this product. Get a real kubota from a junk yard or just buy another tractor or cobble it together for better domestic parts. Whatever you do do not buy this piece of junk. There should be a zero or negative star rating as this thing wasted way more of my time than it was worth.
This product does not fit a Kubota B21 well at all. It barely works with most parts put the their extreme range of motion in order to fit. Furthermore, the quality is very poor. These kind of parts are generally not well made in any case but these are the crudest made and finished I have ever seen. The paint has already come off in many places. The cheap yellow chrome finish on the other parts is not durable or corrosion resistant. There are several parts included which will probably not be necessary for most people. My tractor already has the bar and the original Kubota part is much better. The stabilizer arms cannot be made short enough to work with the inner holes drilled which would offer the greatest strength putting the lifter arms as far out as possible. The lifter arms do not have enough cant and so they put the flexible ball joint of the rock-shafts as their extreme position. Finally one of the lower arm sockets has too small of a hole in it. It is tapered and will not accept the standard Cat1 pin for a 3-pt. Worse, it appears case hardened and a file/drill will not bite it. Also the included top link socket was too wide by about an 1/8". Out comes the belt sander! About an hour was spend laboriously sanding to make them fit. I would pass on this and just head over to a Rural King/Tractor Supply/Family Farm and Home and buy the parts you need and return the ones that don't work. Base it off the pictures or manual. It would cost less and probably be better. I ended up going to TSC anyway since the stabilizers on this wouldn't work. Fortunately some chain did.
