I've not used tractor attachments before, but they are the only ones with a full skid plate and are much cheaper than the others. Like "skeets" said, its the shipping that kills. On my order, $97 was for shipping!

Hi all, Quick update - Tractor Attachments now has the B2601 full skid plates in stock. They probably don't have many of them, so if you want one, better order soon! https://tractorattachments.ca/shop/en/skid-plates/skid-plate-b2301-b2601-p117c77/ At the top of their web page, be sure to...

Thanks everyone for your help on this. I'll keep the rev's up higher!

It does cover both, but they are out of stock until "this spring." If anyone is interested in one, contact them at info@tractorattachments.ca and ask. Maybe the more of us that ask, the faster they can get them back in stock!

I found this one. Looks like a full plate, but might block the mid pto. ok with me since I dont use my mid pto for anything... https://tractorattachments.ca/shop/en/skid-plates/skid-plate-b2301-b2601-p117c77/ Still on the hunt though.

Thanks, all. So what's the baseline? It seems the engine temps stay the same no matter if I'm running at 1500 RPM or 3000 RPM. The temp gauge pretty much just stays at the same "max" spot once it gets up to temp. And, if that's the case, how do RPM's matter? Not arguing, just trying to...

Oh, I know. That's why I'm looking.

Thanks! They look nice, but are a bit pricey. Of course, if you're the only one making a product, you can pretty much charge what you want!

Hi All, Does anyone know of a company that makes skid plates for the B2601? I've seen several that make them for the BX series, but can't find anything for the B2601. Working in the woods, I punctured the main hydraulic filter and would rather not go through that drama again. Thank you

Hi all, I have a 2017 B2601 with 300 hours on it. I've recently noticed that when I go to start it up at the beginning of the day, the exhaust is blowing out drops of soot-soaked liquid. I don't know if it's oil or un-burned fuel, but it's not done this before and has me a little concerned...

I never did solve it. Of course the dealer says they cant hear it, but to me it's very obvious. Like you, I suspect something in the front wheel drive area. I've checked fluid and filters and didnt find anything. I don't notice any operational impact, just seems "rattly" and annoys me.

Unfortunately, the lower clevis on my 2601 only has one hole on both the fixed and the adjustable rods.

The left side arm is shaped in a way that when you move it to the other side, rotating it so it would seemingly match the other one, the welded bracket at the bottom is at the wrong angle and won't fit around the lower arms. I was completely surprised by this as they "look" like they should...

Hi All, I have a B2601 and need to be able to tilt my box blade to the left but only the right-hand lift rod is adjustable. I tried swapping arms from one side to the other, but as I'm sure most of you know, that doesn't work. Is there an adjustable left-side lift rod like the one on the...

Will try to check this and the bucket/stand security tomorrow. Why would lug nut tighness make a difference only when going up hill?
