Checking into it - shipping is free ....mmmm......sounds like a good deal - I want to see how it "attaches" to the ROPS however.

If you buy it - send pictures of how it is installed and what it looks like on your B2601

I can't tell you anything specifically about quality, but you can order directly from the factory in McPherson, Ks. Might want to check price differences.

I am lucky enough to be in Flint Mi. tonight for work. I was going to stop at the local rural king Tomorrow on my way home and see if they have any on the shelf. If I was at home I would take a Tape to the ROPS and see where 52 inches fell.

Rural King did not have any of the Femco Fiberglass canopies on their shelves. I am a bit reluctant to order it I have found a few less than favorable reviews of the canopy and 207 bucks in steel could build a heck of a nice canopy. I think I will hold off and see what I can dig up for a home build. It would be nice to fabricate a canopy so I could customize it with a radio, maybe a CB radio a dome light and work lights.

New guy here, while I am at it this forum is great and I have learned a lot Thanks.
I ordered the Femco TuffTop last week from RuralKing $207 with free shippingand it showed up 2 days later. I could not find much info on them so I took some pictures while assembling mine, hopefully someone will find it useful. It took about 30 minutes to setup and the quality of parts seems great. I spent about an hour moving dirt around and it kept me in the shade so i guess it works.

What material is the canopy made from?

Here's a link to their site. They also sell ROPS fan FOPS for various machines.

Thanks D2Cat! I was just interested because my neighbor just bought a BX2350 and he is interested in getting a cheaper canopy. He saw my Kubota canopy and liked it but does not like the $400.00 + tax price tag. He is looking at cheaper options. Now I know so I'll pass it on to him.

Thanks!
