You are wasting all our time. Since its not worth a darn for skidding logs your gonna buy a CaseIH. Remember?

Perhaps the kubota is working better now. Adding weight to my M6800 made it pull much better.

I think you would be happier if you traded the Kubota for a Case with a cab already installed. A homemade cab is going to ruin your trade in value on that new Kubota.

I build one out of 1-1/2 inch angle iron in 5 parts (4 sides and the top), which lets me take it off for the summer quite easily , and put lexan all around with plywood on top. Not the best looking cab around, but it makes a big diff. in the winter. Much cheaper then a newer tractor or a aftermarket cab.

you seem to have plenty of money to throw around becuase you buy tractors and run them for less than 100 hours before trading them in on new ones. Why not just trade this one in on another kubota with a cab

Because it still wont pull as hard as a 21HP Case. :confused3:

You could always install a cab like this guy did.
