Price Check Pricing on CT335

[43acresofhell]

The dealer I talked to yesterday said there was no front remote available on the 335. He was wrong...they do have them available.

I am talking to Rick Wallace now about what it would take to put a multifunction joystick on. He is working on it. I notice you are from PA. Two suggestions...(1) call Rick and (2) take a look at this one:

Construction Attachments X-Treme Duty Compact Tractor Root Grapple Universal Skid Steer Quick Attach CAL, 1RGCMP

I will let you know what he says.

P.S. How do you like your machine?

I'm nearing the end of hooking up a 3rd function elec/hyd valve on my 335...it's a bit of a ***** due to getting the adapter couplings needed to go from the metric hardline on the power beyond to JIC adapater... but I had one in less than 48 hours but that may very for other people's locations... The dealer offers a Diverter valve for just under $1000 canadian installed...
I'm into mine for $500 with nicer gear and the ability to tilt/grapple at the same time (I hope). I paid $22500 cdn for mine to my house with no rear remotes or any extras except a block heater and the loader... Trying to find alot of info on the BC's is tough due to the newness of them but I'm sure you can learn a bit in the Kioti forums...

thought I'd share my adventures....

I have run into this confusion a couple times in past. Salesman is looking in options list for the tractor, when the Front Auxiliary kit is mounted to the loader so is listed in FEL options.

Tshaw, what are you using for elec/hyd valve. I plan on doing something similar but need an open center elec. valve and supply oil from my detented rear remote.

Everything Attachments has a Power beyond kit for $750. Not installed, mind you. A swicth on the loader control opens and closes the grapple.:thumbsup:

I have a 335 with 225 hours on it with remotes and hoses run to the front for a grapple I am trading in next week. It also has a custom aluminum top. They are giving me $14,000 for it if anybody wants it for that. South Louisiana.

Let me know what Rick has in the way of multifunction joystick. Check this one out at WR Long...

Here's another nice grapple that I've been looking at... Anbo Manufacturing - General Purpose Utility Grapple UT-S

As for how do I like my 335, so far it's awesome. I have about 130 hours on it and it really does seem to only be getting stronger. Both my brother and sister have JD's and I have driven them both and mine just seems so much nicer, more powerful and much easier to operate...maybe I'm a little bias, they're quite happy with theirs as well.
As has been noted on TBN before, there are a few "flaws", the paint really does seem sorta cheesy, no primer and chips rather easy, the Bobcat battery deffinately leaks and corodes the battery compartment, with only 130 hours I have already removed the battery and wire brushed and rustoleumed that area twice, easy fix with a sealed battery but I'll wait til this one dies. The tool box, if you want to call it that, is useless, I removed mine and attached an ammo can in it's place, way bigger, it's steel so much stronger and waterproof.
Overall I wouldn't trade it for one of the other ones. Great machine.

Let me know what Rick says.

I purchased my CT450 from Rick and we used the WRLong kit for my front aux, I have a 72" grapple and it works seemless...

I'm using a d03 tandem center valve on a single valve manifold...$103.99 at princess auto in canada... they have them in open center also... I can't rememeber the name of the outfit in the states thats very similar...(farm supply/misc tools and general guy stuff retailer). I was gonna finish the plumbing tonight but the ground is still way too soft (i got very stuck last night) and were on a forested peat bog... so finishing the grapple would be too much temptation for me...It'll wait a bit

Or you can just use the rear remote, run the hose up front and use either the A or B control you have... at least thats what I did on my CT235. You can see it on the pic...
