I have been given 2 different explanations of the seat that one ends up with when adding a backhoe to a 2601 or 2650. One dealer says you get a swivel seat with the mounting kit. Said I can have the factory seat if I want it. Second dealer first said the backhoe comes with its own seat. I challenged that point with the brochure showing a new swivel seat option, they checked and then said you get a swivel base for the factory seat.
Anyone have either unit with BH and what is reality? Thanks

i kept my backhoe from my L3200. the B2650/B3350 sub frame and extension, sets the backhoe rearward far enough for the backhoe seat to be used. so when i have the backhoe on, i have two seats. facing in opposite directions.

i just put one on my B2620 and the subframe kit included a swivel base for the stock seat.
