Subject: Telehandlers JCB 520?


Southeast Florida
I have a JCB 520-50 rented from Neff identical to this on in the photo. I knew how handy they were but when the director of operation was visiting me and seen it in action he decided they needed to be on all of the company farms coast to coast. Does anybody besides JCB make one with a profile this low? We need to go inside semi trailers and greenhouses to work. Every other manufacture that builds the minis has the boom in the center rather than offset like the JCB. They also have a very high vertical drop on the front where the attachments are that limits tight quarters.

Historically JCB parts are a nightmare to get and nothing will interchange since they're limy design. Has this got better over the years? They have an excellent product as far as I'm concerned, service has been terrible, but this is going back 20+ years to 1989 with a JCB backhoe.
