Ok I'm a big but not huge guy, 6'-3" & 225 lbs. I have a Kubota L-39 and thought the DK-45S Cab was really slick as many times I wished for a cab vs. my 4pt Rops with roof.
My comments on the DK45S cab are.
Cab is sturdy and well sealed. Better than Kubota cabs I have checked out.
Step up is very whimpy.
Nicely appointed but the Kubuta plastic bits are of a little higher quality. i.e Switches , knobs etc.
Darn cab was cramped! Maybe the L-39 layout has me spoiled with the roomy operator station, but the DK45 needed an inch or two or three everywhere!
I sure do like the 12.5 x 16 rubber on the DK-45 vs the 10.5-15 on the L-39.
L-39 needs more flotation.
Wish the L-39 had 45 HP.
GST has the DK45S shuttle beat big time, at least for tractor operation, maybe not for ratio spread.
