Showtime Fabrication is pleased to offer this direct pin-on hydraulic thumb kit to fit YOUR Kubota mini excavator.
This specific item will fit Kubota KX161 and U45-U50-U55 models using the factory Kubota quick attach system and will arrive with a flat black finish.  
If you do not use the factory quick hitch system, have a different coupler, direct pin-on bucket, or don't know what you have, please get in touch with us to get you the right thumb that fits perfect.  If you have a different model excavator, please see our other listings or contact us.  All of our thumbs are backed by a 1 year warranty so buy with confidence knowing you are getting a high quality attachment that will stand up to your abuse.

This is a complete thumb kit including USA hoses to fit the factory auxiliary hydraulic lines which come plugged from the factory, no trips to the hardware store.  We have flat faced couplers available too for additional cost if you require them for your machine.  Shipping to the lower 48 is also included.  Please contact us for a quote on international or non-contiguous US shipping.

This specific thumb measures 13" wide and features two 3/4" thick AR400 steel tines which are CNC cut and specifically designed for grabbing rocks, brush, stumps, and more.  We do offer upgrades to 1" tines for this model as well for extreme duty applications.  We use our custom USA made 3000psi welded hydraulic cylinder with an induction hardened, chrome plated 2" rod, and oversized crosstube pins which will fit into the factory cylinder mount already on your machine.  Please let us know if there is not a cylinder mount on your machine already.  The hydraulic cylinder also utilizes a hardline from the front port to the base so that the hoses connect out of harms way, and finally we install replaceable bushings in the cylinder crosstubes for easy future maintenance.  The cylinders are also fully rebuildable and utilize standard components.  All pins are included with this kit including a longer 45mm main pin and they are turned from HT4142 USA steel to the appropriate spec.  The main pin will be supplied with a countersunk grease fitting just like the factory one so you can still maintain the end of your stick.

Protected grease fittings are provided at all pivoting locations so that all components of the thumb can be maintained.

As you can see, we offer a completely turn-key thumb package that is hundreds of dollars less than the dealership while still offering incredible quality and components not found on the OE model.  We have thousands of excavator thumbs in the field and we stand behind our product.  We have had great success with our thumbs and other attachments for many years.  For Customer Service, or if you have any additional questions on this or any of our products, please 'Ask Seller A Question' or just call us 651-21three-0284.

Please note pictures showing thumbs with more than two tines are only for reference and available in different auctions or by contacting us.  If you are interested in a thumb for a different machine, or need something special, please contact us so we can send you our measurement form and confirm fitment as well as discuss your application.  Custom thumbs are our main business so we are prepared for your inquiry and would be happy to help.
Things to note would be if: 
  • you have a factory or aftermarket coupler/pin grabber
  • main pin needs a grease fitting
  • other existing mounts on stick that may interfere
  • special retainer on the main pin
  • any modification to the factory main pin

We build our thumbs specifically to your machine for perfect fit so the eBay item quantity and ETA may not always be accurate.

Weight is about 220 lbs.  Shipping is included to the lower 48!

For customer service or if this is not exactly what you are looking for, just call us 651-21three-0284.  We can make any length, width, and tine configuration you need as well as thumbs for larger and smaller machines of any brand.
We are more than happy to help you size one for your machine.
We also do progressive linkage thumbs and other heavy equipment attachments.

Have a great day and thanks for looking!  Showtime Fabrication
