Kubota B7610,
OK, I need opinions on which might be a better fit. I am looking at a Leinbach model 19-12"
or a Frontier one bottom 14" plow. This will hook to a Kubota B7610 4WD. The Leinbach is a little smaller and priced around $500, The Frontier is heavier duty and sell for $560. The Leinbach dealer thinks the smaller 19-12 is a better fit but I really don't know why. Perhaps I should call him. My tractor is rated at 25HP. I am just doing my gardens now but if my day job dies perhaps I'll do others in the fall.
Leinbach model 19-12"- weight is 175lbs ($503)
Frontier 1 x 14"- weight is 256lbs ($567)
Leinbach model 81- weight is 225lbs ($553)
The Frontier is locale JD dealer
Leinback is shipped from NC
Any thoughts would be appreciated,....thanks
Maybe a middle buster is a CHEAPER approach......?

I have a leinbach 1 bottom I use behind my BX2230 and love it,I don't remember the model# but it is a 1 bottom 20" wide arm spacing model.Plenty heavy enough in my opinion for plowing for sure.With my Bx I can bury plow in the right ground but on the next pass I can almost roll the Bx over in the fur if not careful so I do not plow more than 8" deep.With you B if you have lug tires I would think it would have no problem. I do a 1/2-2/3 of and acre every year plow still works fine. Good luck, Bill
