Bx 24 and DR Leaf and Grass catcher

[dkraut]

First of all I need to thank you all for the help this site has given me in my pursuit of a tractor. I have just taken delivery of my new BX 24 with 54" fine cut mmm, front mount snow blower and tooth bar. I purchased a 7hp premiere Dr Power leaf and grass catcher. But I have not been able to mount the bracket on the back of the tractor. I removed the backhoe but do not see anyway to attach it. Does anyone have an idea or suggestion for me?

I do not have a BX but was wondering if your tractor has a place for a drawbar to be attached in the back towards the bottom of the tractor transaxle? It would be a slot where a bar about 18" long made of fairly thick steel with holes in it would slide through and get pinned. You then add either a ball, a hook etc to the end. It may be an option on the BX tractors.

Have no idea what the heck you guys are trying to attach to the back of the tractor, but this is how I got a ball on the back of my tractor:
Leinbach Machinery, 3 Point Gooseneck Mover, Trail Hitch Receivers, Leinbach Machinery Co, Leinbach Machinery 3 Point Gooseneck Movers

When I don't have a 2" ball in there, I have one of those little propellers.

Kidding.

I have a Cyclone Rake which may have a similar connection as the DR. The cyclone rake uses a mounting bracket that mounts on the 3PH. It does not mount directly to the tractor and does not need to be bolted either. You just pin it into the 3PH.
Good luck

There is another, nearly identical string (BX Drawbar) currently in discussion that has a drawbar attachment from e-bay for some $16. That little thingy and a hunk of steel looks like it could be useful.
