I have been a long time lurker but am registering and need help so I thank you all in advance. I live in Upstate NY and average 80-100" of snow per year and my gravel driveway is about 1000' long. I would like to put a front mount snowblower on my tractor ( JD 790 / 4WD / gear / 419 loader / ag's ) but the only part not available from the dealer is the " Tractor Front Hitch "

Any help / guidance / advice would be appreciated

Thanks

Jack

I have a hitch for a 4X00/4X10 if you can adapt it.

I adapted the hitch from a 955 onto my 4410 as I didn't want to remove the grill guard every time I wanted to use the snow blower.

Would you be willing to send pictures ?

I sold this to a neighbor who used the blower down in the city at his business. That front bracket was quite the elaborate affair. Spring loaded pins and heavy formed steel.

Not sure what he did with the blower. A few years ago he said it was available albeit in very rusty condition. Could be in a container across the street.

If you think it would fit with adaptation I could purchase it ?

He is only up on weekends. If I see him, I will ask him what the scoop is. So does that mean, you are buying the proper JD blower?

Picture from selling equipment. I think it's the best I have although not good enough. Even I had forgotten the complexity of that thing, seeing it now again. It was a HAPPY day when I came across this unit at a municipal auction!

If I can source that hitch adapter I can order all the rest direct from JD

Thanks
