Kubota M59 with a cab?

[tnpete]

Anyone plan on adding one of these to there M59?
Laurin inc.
They have one for it and looks good. Was pricing a L48 and the M59 and asked the dealer if he thought the Kubota would be coming out with a cab of this unit. And he gave me this link.
Just wondering if it still works right with the hoe off. And the 3pt being used?

Kenny that is what I was thinking. Not sure on the price yet. But you know its worth about what every they ask when it 100 degrees outside or 25 and snowing.

It looks amazing - A/C and heat are always a treat.

I'm not completely clear by the images how this cab coexists with the swiveling seat and backhoe operation. I was looking at their same Eclipse version for the Kubota B26. I can see how the large rear window pivots upward to a frozen 90 degree position. But, it looks like there's a lower glass window in front of the backhoe controls as well as where you feet would go when operating the backhoe.

The cabs are as close to getting a factory cab as you will get! Very nice on fit and finish and they are very complete on features to have a very comfortable cab.

These guys make the best cabs around, no question. Just be ready for some sticker shock.

For the M59 cab, or the B26 cab, including A/C and heat, what's your guestimate???

wow, nice.

But I don't see needing one personally. If I end up using it a lot in the winter I might have a boat canvas guy make up zip covers, but for the rest I like the M59s station open.

Love the M59

Our winters are not that bad. But this week only the heat index has been over 100. And that is hot with 75%+ moisture.

that would definitely have me thinking AC and cab thoughts!

ITs a trade. We have 7 dreary months of winter, but summer is gorgeous.

I'd be curious to know what that Laurin Cab runs - it looks factory, very impressive

12-14k. I had priced one awhile back for a smaller tractor at 10k.

Hi,

Right across from my work is a JD dealership and they have a 110 TLB with a Laurin cab the sales guy said it is around 60K, just to give you an idea of pricing. Mind you that is east coast canadian prices, which are always really high. The cab seems quite nice, not sure if it has heat and air, assume it does for that price!!!

Gack. No real surprise, but Gack. Glad I like the open station.

 

[tnpete]

At that price I can wear my guide wear clothing and hook up a fan. Man that is high.
Back to the drawing board.

curtis makes a nice cab. at 2000 with heat, lights, and fan it might work out for you.

God those cabs look nice....

This does kinda beg the question of course.... how much does one of those suckers weigh? If it adds 1000 pounds to something like an M59, then we're starting to get into the "defeating a major selling point of the M59" problem which is being able to trailer the thing with a modest setup. Throw in a cab, some wheel weights, and now you might be licking at the heels of needing a
CDL to move the thing.....
