Got mine 3 days ago. Dealer had it ordered for their lot and I just came by at the right time. It’s a really solid machine 👍

Any update? My right rear just went today. 1 Month after warranty expiry. Happened while pushing a pile.

Thanks, I was thinking of getting some 1/2 inch steel welded onto my skid shoes. Your idea sounds solid!

So my first experiment failed. It was moving the blades on the landplane to 2.5-3.5 Inches. The skid shoes are too broad and floated across the RAP, even in reverse. I was thinking of adding 3in skid shoes to the fel bucket as I could use as much down force as required. Other option is simply...

Will it float left to right too or just up and down?

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I was originally thinking a rear blade with gauge wheels but it would be nice to move material too.

Or maybe I cut out the holes to adjust the blades on the grading scraper to be adjusted to a higher height off the ground. This would greatly weaken it but it is relatively light duty work.

Hello, I install gravel driveways for a living using my B26 and a grading scraper. It works fine but the height of the gravel left behind is only About an inch if I am lucky. That’s fine as I then spread more over with my bucket. However I am starting to install more RAP driveway and I need it...

I also bought a BX23s in 2017 and just bought a 2019 B26. It’s size is very similar to the BX but power is massively more and well so is the price. Height is almost the same with the ROPs up, it’s slightly longer and wider. Mainly due to the 48in vs 60in bucket on the front. Look up the specs on...

Thanks everyone, I run a business and the B26 is a different animal than B Series machines. Digging strength is similar to a mini ex double the b26s weight, or a 2.5T mini.

Because my loader takes a beating and I need a stronger hoe

Thanks for the help everyone. Yes I saw the 2019 updates but I guess no insight on the 2020. The 2 things I really want is creep and a hair more room for turn as I will be getting it cabbed. Currently rocking the BX23s, 750 hours on it, never taken the loaded off even to mow. I am using it for...

Hello, So there is some information about potential updates to the 2019 B2601 but no one can find anything written online about it. I believe the B26 has been out for over 10 years now but I cannot find anything online that references revisions or changes throughout those years. Anyway I...

Hello, This isnt exactly the best forum but I think it fits. Does anyone have experience with both machines? When I read Kubota's specs these 2 units have pretty similar digging/breakout forces. I have run both machines but the BT603 feels that it has half the power. This do to me not running...
