337 or 341

[MMCC]

I was looking for a comparision for those of you that have one or the other or both. I am replacing a Kubota KX 121-3 (9300lb) machine and have other bigger equipment. I already own a T-300 and love it. I am hooked on Bobcat. The Kubota is a great machine but it is a little under powered. I want the versatility of swapping hammers, augers and others between the T-300 and excavator. I want to remain in the smaller machine area. I use this machine for addition foundations and areas where space is an issue. I like the 337 (havent operated a newer one yet) I could always use the extra stick length of the 341. I just dont want to build myself out of this smaller market by going bigger with the 341. Any suggestions....Matt

Just to clarify, are you looking for a comparison of machines in that weight class or a comparison between the 341 and 337 alone?

I am looking for a comparison between the 341 and the 337. The replacement machine will likely be one or the other. I think the only difference is counter weight and dipper length. I was curious if anyone had recently purchased either and why they choose one over the other. Matt

My 341 shakes as it crawls. Feels like a bad sprocket or something. All new idlers on bottom. Any ideas how to troubleshoot?
