Good question? Maybe you can lift it high enuf, but you have to look at the situation, project, and predict without experience at this point. I have a BX, and by seeing what it is capable of I think you can do with just a little more tractor than it is. The things I believe will be most important for you to look for are diifficult to find in one package w/i the SCUT range:With the ground clearance offered by these size tractors, why would you need to remove the belly mower? Can't you just lift it higher off the ground???
1] Full Cat1 3PH with hydraulics that automatically hold set height.
2] FEL that will handle a Skid Steer Quick Attach.
3] At least one hydraulic remote.
4] HST with more than 20 HP - an easy one to find!
5] Weight more than 1500# before tires are ballasted
6] Live PTO
7] 4wd
8] Industrial tires if its sandy. AGs if the soil is cohesive.
9] Individual L/R brakes.
I think the Kubota B series may be able to provide this, but I dont have experience with them.
