    B2601 with LA435 FEL with Mechanical Self Leveling - Bucket issues?

    Well, after a few weeks of playing with it, I have to say, the self leveling kit is pretty neat, I used the bucket to haul a fridge from my workshop to my garage, and the ability to raise the loader without shifting the load is pretty handy.

    B2601 with LA435 FEL with Mechanical Self Leveling - Bucket issues?

    Hey All, I was just delivered a B2601 with the new LA435 swift-tach loader. Surprise to me is that it came with the mechanical self-leveling option installed, which is a cool feature for when I put pallet forks on the front. However, with the bucket on the front, it limits how far back the...
