B26 Question

[RichT]

Will the BX22 3PH rig (arms, pins, et al) fit a B26?

 

[bx24]

I cannot give you an answer for sure, but knowing my bx24 and after looking at the b26, I cannot think of a reason why it should not.

I know you were looking for a more definitive answer though ....

I thought I read that the BX1850/BX2350/BX24 have 3PH arms which spread wider than those on earlier BX tractors. Could be wrong though.

I'd ask the dealer about the strength of those BX arms. Although they may fit, the B26 has 2.5 times the 3pt lift capacity.

I would most certainly make sure they are EXACTLY compatable.....think of the internal damage that could occur if the radius did not match.....but the arms fit seemingly perfect? I would be careful.

 

[RichT]

Was hoping someone here might know definitively. Local bota dealer is pretty clueless on such matters. I get the "we'll get back to you on that" response and of course they don't.

I have to ask why would you want to use the BX equipment on a B26? Looking at my L39 and B21 my bet is they will not work.

I have a BX22 3PH rig and plan to purchase a B26 - just seeing if I can save a few buckaroos.

The B26 doesn't come with the 3pt. linkage arms?

 

[curtisfarmer]

I have 2 L48 TLBs and both mine came with complete linkage. I did notice the M59 3pt. is now optional....so maybe you are in the same pricing boat. Lame they don't provide the linkage standard. Anyone with the L39 have this problem. 5 minute pause................I was so amazed this came up with the B26 now too along with the M59, I pulled out my B26/L39/L48 brochure and it doesn't list the B26 linkage as optional. The rear spec. page lists it as "Standard". So there you have it. (or don't).
