more orange than anything
I am adding a B-26 to list of stuff in the shed & did not know if there was anything others wished they had ordered or purchased with it, would like to wrap it all in the 0% loan.
It has rear thumb and I was going to add front valve but did not know if I could get a 4n1 from Kubota? I ordered 12" 18" 24" buckets with quick attach. I wish I could get an 8" on it as that will be the only thing I will miss on the BX24 that I am selling. Has anyone tried to get an 8" to fit this one? I think it my if I take the quick attach off? I am having the dealer get the tires foam filled so we don't have any flats.

I will be using this for utility work IE cable TV and water line installs along with installing sprinkles and drainage, IE we have several trenchers and bigger equipment if we needed I just find this size machine saves hrs of hand digging & wheelbarrow work.
All input would be appreciated & yes I wish could keep both the bx24 and the b26, but I find the bx24 is a little small for commercial use.

I had my friendly fabricator fabricate my 8" bucket to fit the quick attach. It works just as good as the manufactured buckets installing and de-installing. Find a real good fabricator and you will be able to do the same thing. It cost me $63 for the job not including the bucket.:)
Best of luck with the B26. I love mine and really enjoying working it and it never feels like work when one is using it.

dodge man
Hoping it pays for itself, and I even drug it home with a dodge, as it fits nicely on my smaller trailer.
