The B2650 count down has begun!

Rkidd,
Do you know what size the pipe is? Did you just go to a muffler/exhaust shop?

Larry, your really making some progress on the mods!

Hey Dan. I got the pipe from a local auto parts that had a bender. Muffler shop would sure work. The piece of pipe was like $5.00. I cant remember the exact size that I got, or if they had to swedge the end out to fit over the existsing pipe. Been a couple years. I went out to my shop and measured the ID of the piece I cut off of the new pipe, and it was 1 3/8" I might have cut a short piece off of the tractor and took with me to make sure the new piece fit over the old . I just drilled a hole thru the pipes and used a sheet metal screw in the bottom of the pipe out of site to hold them together for a nice clean look.

Thank,
Once I take possession of mine I will do the same.
I hope them tires show up today or tomorrow so I can get the tractor Wednesday or Tuesday.

The front left corner of my loader is completely black at 11 hours. I initially thought that I had a small hydraulic oil leak at the fittings there, then I realized that I'm seeing the exhaust soot collecting there and making a mess of that area.

Running the exhaust like I did will take care of the problem. Been a couple years and hundreds of hrs, and has worked out great.

Stopped at the dealer today. Tractor is ready to go! Except we are waiting on the larger tires/rims to show up. I hope there here tomorrow or Thursday. Dealer said if there not here soon he will let me take it with the ones that are on it and swap them out when they come in.

Hey, your toolbox is missing from the left side ROPS... Or.. if your not getting the hoe, maybe it's mounted behind your seat?

Looks great
But ****! Those tires look funny on that thing!
The front look so tiny.

Do is all a favor, stand directly beside it, phone turned sideways and take a couple pictures from the side as it is now, then try to recreate that same shot after the new tires. Then you can post them back to back so people can see what your getting when you do that upgrade.

 

[Rock Crawler]

Oh, I see the toolbox in the picture with the seat flipped up. You can add 2 more, one on each side of the ROPS!

 

[Dan33Klein]

If I can get there before they swap them out I will get direct side shots.
Yes the tool box is on the back since I don稚 have a backhoe.
Shown in this pic!

I知 trying to hang in here but the wait is killing me.

Dude it almost killed me. And my wife almost threw me out of the house. I was absolutely losing my crap while waiting for my tractor. Especially whenever I knew that they had started on it and it had 7 to 10 days to wait for them to finish it. I was going completely crazy.

The wait was a killer for me also. They kept adding a day for an extra week. Finally I called and said let’s go I want my tractor. Lol.
