Kubota B26 with enclosed cab

[SamWalton]

Kubota doesn't offer a Cab for the B26 TLB but Laurin-Inc of Canada does. It looks this they did a nice job filling this niche market. I guess the Canadians like to stay warm. If anyone has one please let us know what you think of it and what we can expect tp pay?

Thanks

Wow, that looks fantastic, I wonder of they offer it for L48s? That looks real nice with a tight fit, I have been put off by aftermarket cabs as they never seem tight enough. That looks REAL comfortable.

Thats a nice looking cab.

As an owner and a big guy I got to say there isn't much room to rotate the seat while on it. Normally you would dismount the tractor and climb back on either side of the back hoe area, but with this cab in place there will be no rear entry. Basically you will need to climb over the seat to work the back hoe. I have tried this myself and found it to be much easier if you climb over with the seat at the first 90 degrees of rotation, saving you the extra stretch over the backrest of the seat. I wouldn't let this problem be the determining factor in purchasing, but I would say your climate will let you know all on its own.

I requested a quote for the cab equipped as basic, medium and full options. I hope to receive it back soon. I will post when received.

Hey Sam, could you inquire about your cab type for a L48? That cab looks real nice.

Tractors with cabs are way better then anything...if your going to buy a tractor why not splurge and get one with all the luxrious things

 

[curtisfarmer]

CWilson,

Keep in mind that Kubota's industrial TLBs are NOT available with cabs, not even as an option. Bummer, but it is what it is.....a superior machine to homeowner machines.

I got the price quote but they would only provide suggested retail and only a dealer would be able to provide accurate pricing. Anyway we can see they don't come cheap. I am curiouse to see a US dealer quote. I will try again.

I know that Sims has a cab for the B26, it doesn't look quite as nice as the Laurin one, but it allows entry into the backhoe part through the back. Total cost comes to about $4200 or so.

I am not familiar with Sims, so if you could please leave a link to their website. Thanks for the info!

Well guys,here is my 2017 b26 with laurin cab.its very nice,.i can't wait for winter.i have heat/radio/wipers..I didn't want a/c..you'll have to put big white box on roof.it didn't look pretty....
It is tight and awkward to switch to bh...but manageable..I have rear snow blower kubota 64"..3thrd function valve..looking to get bolt on grapple...

Really nice cab, I'm jealous!

I have a cottage in snow country where it gets down to -30 Celsius and it's darn cold sitting there in an open cab. I took the poor man's route and installed a heated car over the vinyl OEM Kobota seat. It's strange how much more comfy it is just with a car seat.

I do get cold feet and hands though when it gets really cold, I'll probably invest in good gloves and boots next winter. Still, I had to clean the drool off my monitor after looking at the photos.

No drooling !! LoL ...it is warm little bit loud,but it winter the heater will make the noise sound umm warm.!
It did cost $$$$$ for cab.. which drove price of machine up considerably... I haven't really tested it out yet..it's just been raining off and on...no sense in getting it all muddy n dirty .for nothing.....but I can't wait to..LoL....if any questions want answered about the cab just ask...I know I seen few forums where people were asking questions about the laurin cab on a b26.. I think next week I will take of the bh on a trial run,and put snow blower on,just to see how things work out...the extended piece of the cab is suppose to come off with bh,and the back glass does come off,and it's suppose to go back on with a steel plate that gets placed on bottom.....so before winter does come if any issues arise I shall have them all worked out...
