Well worth it though since taking the front hitch off even if it's only twice a year is a task I don't really want. As for using the loader with the front hitch on there is no problem. You just pull some pins to quickly remove the A frame leaving the rest on the tractor and install the loader. It's recommended to take the A frame off when not in use anyway and it only takes a minute. I'm still going to buy a rear blade for driveway maintenance work. As for removing the MMM on a concrete pad it is quite easy, not sure I'd want to try it on the grass as it is quite heavy. I expect I will use the loader and a sling to lift it up to do maintenance on the blades. The new drive on MMM that is coming out I'm sure will be much nicer and I expect a much bigger price tag with it.
Could you post that part number for that special MMM bracket? $250 is not that stiff for the amount of convenience it would bring. - just incase I bail on the flail or want to get the 72" ONRamp MMM later (used?). Yes it might be big bucks, all quiet on the western fron t right now with regards to that mower. Thanks a bunch Billyvan
