Got this from the dealer today as I'm waiting for my build to be completed by them.

Also we are still waiting on the 3rd valve kit. They are now saying this kit is not available for another few weeks.

Are these kits from Kubota? Anyone aware of some kind of shortage? I'm assuming "they" is Kubota.

He said they are looking for other options for that valve kit to speed things up. Any reason not to go with whatever they select and wait on the original kit?

Land pride sent my dealer a B third function valve by mistake first, so I had to wait a bit longer for mine, and I betcha they just kept that valve. I'd wait for it.

My dealer used Kubota rear hydraulic valves and hoses on my L2501 but a W.R. Long 3rd function kit. They like the W. R. Long 3rd function better. Everything Attachments sells the Long kit and I'm getting my grapple from them so I figure its a good fit.

You are talking about the 3rd function for the loader correct? If they can't get the Kubota kit have them get the W. R. Long kit and deliver your tractor.

Not sure if you are speaking of the (front) third function valve kit. but it you are, there was no issue in mid summer. I bought my B3350 with third function valve mid summer without delay. At the time, there was a B2650 in the shop being prepared for delivery (same third function valve). It too was delivered without delay.

Not sure about rear remotes but you do not want the Kubota rear remotes for your 2650 anyway because they are truly Rube Goldbergs.

This is for the front FEL valve kit. I think they'll get Kubota or LP as a first attempt. Not sure what they go with after.
