I just took a quick peek at Curtis Cabs, and I found this:

1JD2520AS John Deere 2320, 2520 Curtis Hard Sided Deluxe 350 $3,099
1JD2520SS John Deere 2320, 2520 Curtis Soft Sided Deluxe 300 $1,999

Curtis has a good reputation amoung TBN members, and seem to be well built.

I really like my Curtis softside. I can pull the doors and back curtain off, and makes a nice sunbrella in the summer.

JD140400: I purchased and installed the Curtis Cab on my 4500, plus, for a about $350.00 extra bucks, I purchased and installed the 20,000 btu heater on it too. It uses coolant from the engine to warm the inside of the cab. There is nothing like clearing a driveway with the wind blowing and staying warm. Heck, when I first used it, I forgot I had it on and I couldn't figure out for the life of me why I was sweating. Believe me, when it's 10 degrees outside with a 20MPH north wind, you don't mind clearing the yard of snow.

To install the Curtis Cab, get a buddy or family member to help out or have a shop do it for you. It is heavy and takes a couple of people to lift some of the panels. The doors remove easily and the windows swing out for summertime use. Because I have had cancer, I have to be careful of how much sun I get so the roof couples as a nice sunroof. Good luck!

I have heard that the aftermarket cabs like Curtis are a little more noisy and that it is better to get the exhaust pipe that exits over your head to avoid get fumed? Is that actually corrrect?

See if jodale perry has a cab for you tractor. I have one on my tractor. A picture link is above. I would agree that a exhaus that exits up high would be better.

I think the stack is less than $150? Also do you notice the cab is louder than open station?

Hey that looks very good actually. I do believe they have on efor my unit.

I would say that it is noisier, I just put my muffs on anyway.

Some ppl have used golf cart covers (range from $99 to $200) over their canopy as a windbreak..

just a thought

Noisier is probably no problem as I also wear ear prot gear. How about the fumes? Sounds like just going with a smoke stack will take car of that.

I do get some fumes with the wind blowing the wrong way. A stack would be the ticket. Still worth it though. Nice to be out of the wind.
