Hi foks,
I finally recieved my Jodale Perry cab for my 2520. I installed it myself which wasnt the end of the world. The forgot to send a few things in the original package with the cab so it has slowed down the install process greatly. Overall I'm impressed with the build of the cab, very sturdy, sharp, OEM looking style.
I am dissapointed that it is quite loud in there when you running at full throtle. Honestly, I'm not that familiar with cab tractors and have always run open station machines. Are the generally all loud?
Anyway, installing it has been fun once I got all my missing pieces. I even installed a Pioneer stereo with Bluetooth and iPod controls.
My only piece of the puzzle left now is getting the heater working properlly. It doesnt heat up as much as it should and I've been messing around with purging air from the system, etc... but no luck. It also makes a horrible grinding noise and spits out shrapnel when you put the blower on high speed. I have contacted them and they are going to send me out a whole new heating unit. I pray that once I replace that, it works the way it should.
Overall, I'm happy but just not thrilled yet until I get the heater working right and I can clean snow with a Tee shirt on and cold beer.
I'm sure it will get resolved and I'll be thrilled.
I'll get pictures posted soon, I have an amazing set of pallet forks that a buddy of mine from a local welding shop made up for me that I have to show off to the tractor world online. They work on the FEL and iMatch, very slick...
Thanks...

I love mine, but theres no way I could listen to a radio in there. I don't blame the cab for this but the tractor itself, mostly the hydrostatic drive system which are very noisy on these model. I fix my problem, I went and bought a set of hearing protection with am fm radio build-in. Works great.
