    Werk-brau tilt coupler advice

    I'm asking for opinions on putting a powertilt on a 2019 Kubota KX33. Current setup has a thumb. I have been quoted a pin on tilt coupler with a Kubota coupler to work with my existing buckets: 12,24, with a 36" grading bucket. I realize the thumb may not be useful once the tilt is on. I don't...

    That was a quote from a JCB dealer. The cost of the JCB was going to be what I offered at less than $1000. I'm not sure if a thread needs to be closed, but this one is done. Again, thanks for the input and various perspectives. It was very helpful in reaching a decision.

    2014 JCB 260 eco bad engine

    First off, I am grateful for all the input and responses. Very helpful. So, I just got a quote from the dealer for a new engine that they have in stock in Chicago. $29,388 plus freight.

    2014 JCB 260 eco bad engine

    I'm not sure about the engine. I thought it was a perkins engine but I haven't figured that out yet. Nearest dealers are an hour away so not super convenient but doable. I have sent out some emails for a remanned engine over the weekend, but will most likely have to make some phone calls to get...

    2014 JCB 260 eco bad engine

    My son asked me if I wanted to buy the machine in the title. 500 hours farm use with a hole in the block. He just took over the farm and wants it gone. I'm looking at it as a cheaper way to add a wheeled machine to the fleet. I have a kubota ssv 75 tracked machine and a mini ex. So, what are...
