OEM mirrors on B2650 Cab - Loose

[Duke]

Anyone have an issue with the cab mounted mirrors being too sensitive to being knocked out of adjustment?
I'm disappointed with the factory mirrors on my new B2650 Cab.
The spring detention is fine but it***8217;s the ball and socket on the mirror that is way too loose or slippery and if just a twig touches them they get knocked out of adjustment.
Keep bumping them with head too.
They can***8217;t be tightened to be any stiffer either. Been there done that.
Poor design by Kubota. Anyone have a fix/replacement mirror?

*bump*
Anybody have the same issue with factory mirrors being too sensitive?
Any suggestions for a fix?

I noticed this while inspecting my soon-to-be B2650c also. I'll be investigating further once I take delivery and post back if/when I find a solution.

Any time mine get knocked out of adjustment it's because I tried to snuggle up too close to something. Better tweaked than broken.

Have muttered a few incantations after bumping my head on them.

If you want to hear some really creative language, hang around while I hook up a 3-point implement with the rear hatch open so I can reach the 3PH lever in the cab...

Hit my head on them one too many times. Took them off.

I am not familiar with mirrors on your machine, but I had a similar complaint with the ones on my L4060. My mirrors have a plastic cover that pops up where the shaft enters the mirror, and there are 2 screws that will snug up the ball joint.

I have driven tractors for over 51 years and find rear view mirrors useless and a PIA. The ones for my B2650 are quietly sitting on a shelf in the barn. If I only worked in open fields they would be ok but I live in a sizeable Pecan orchard so.....
