I expect that they should have it ready for us in the next couple months. They've been trying to get their hands on a BH77 locally. If they can't do that soon, then we'll use my machine to test everything. They already have a thumb kit for compact hoes with a hydraulic upgrade to their kit - I just asked them to retrofit the hydraulic upgrade to the BH77's mechanical thumb.
See pricing they've discussed in my post above.
Great.
I already have the Kubota manual thumb on my BH77. Just having an upgrade that converts it to hydraulic was exactly what I was looking for.
If they're located in the New England area - let me know. Maybe I can help out to get this going.
It's funny. I've been going over my B3200 the last few days trying to think out some of the improvements I'd like to make. And just today I thought I would start looking into the hydraulic thumb thing too (along with some other things) . So I sat down tonite and started searching - and came across this thread. I must have missed it - because I don't remember seeing it before.
