Mahindra Max 28XL, HST, TLB
Bit the bullet and purchased the Max28XL, HST, TLB... I was looking at, 43 hours and a 5' Box Blade.

Found a 2013 Max 28 with low hours and a good price.

Came with the Sun Shade too and a soft enclosure which I probably will sell.

The BH has not been used and the FEL has a few slight scratches.

I plan on using Ken's Bolt-On Hooks and maybe a 2x2 Receiver.
Plan is for 2 Hooks on the FEL mounted by each hinge point and 1 Hook mounted on the BH Bucket, centered and as high as I can without interference. The 2x2 Receiver will be centered on the FEL.

I purchased a Mahindra Thumb for the BH, hoping it will help with the rock work in my future.

you're gonna love it.

You'd better adjust that canopy down more level or the wind will lift the front end up if you go more than 10 mph. :)

and yes, you'll find the thumb very helpful. A hydro version would be better, but you'll get a lot of use out of it...as do I. It's great for ripping and lifting small trees and stumps too.

Ok on the Canopy, I was thinking the same thing, just waiting to get it.
I planed on adding two support posts in the front of of the canopy, both to support the front edge and so I can add a mirror or two and a place for mounting front facing lights.

Yes on the thumb, I was also thinkingmthe HYDro version but the added cost of the additional,valve stopped me. Maybe in the future if needed. The stationary unit will work for the speed I will be working at.
Also, no trees or logs where I am, so it will be rock work for the thumb.

Thks for the response.

There's not alot of info out there on the soft cab. However i found a retailer that said it's the same cab for the Max and the Max XL.

PM me if you're still interesting in selling the cab... Thanks!

Congrats! I am very pleased with my Max 25 HST. 20 hrs on it in less than 2 weeks. Glad i stayed away from the KUB BX top of the line. That seems like a glorified lawn tractor compared to the Mahindra. Enjoy!!!

Shift 4200,
Not sure what the top fits or even the manufacturer.
As soon as I get it I will check it out.
From the pictures it looks never used.

Added Note:
Dealer said they go for around $690 but this one is slightly faded.
Check what it fits and make me an offer, plus shipping ?

Mahindra BHS Thumb is on.

Hoping this tool will help in the rock moving and wall construction.
