Find this on fb marketplace as a huge weber grill. Needs new legs but the price is really cheap.

You can pick up a leg kit from Weber.  Might want to check condition of cooking and charcoal grates before buying

That is indeed a newer 26."

I agree with @demosthenes9 about checking grates, but keep in mind the grill grate on this 26" is stainless. Unless it's bent to hell, it will just need to be cleaned.

I just picked up a 26r that needed legs and thought it was a bargain at $50. Went to pick it up and found that 2 of the leg sockets are gone. Should be warranty right? Called Weber to get bowl replaced but CSR phone said the serial number is not correct. Told me to email pics and I would hear back. As of today nothing so I think I'm screwed to get it back on its legs. Don't have room for a grill table so my next thought is to find sockets off a junk kettle. Anyone know if the 22 and 26 legs sockets are the same size in diameter? Open to any other advise too. Thanks in advance!

The warranty applies to the original purchaser. You should be able to get leg sockets from another grill and use stainless washers and screws to get it standing.

I'm not if you had a hand in this but Weber CS called the day you posted this question and went over my issues. Today I received 3 big boxes of parts to rebuild that 26r. I forgot the name of the lady who handled this but if you know who it is, she needs to know I can't  thank her enough!
