I really like the sub-compact Masseys. Even as a huge Kubota fan.
Nice choice. I'm considering a GC myself.

I just detached the bellie mower and now can measure for ground clearance underneath the tractor. Here are my results: front axle about 8-5/8", front axle gears about 3-5/8" (lowest point). Rear plate that the Stabilizer is a part of about 7-1/8", bolts beneath the plate about 6-2/8". The filter protector plate about 9-3/4" The tires might make some difference. I believe I have R-4's. I do not have either the Turf or Ag.
I don't know how they came up with 6.7" ground clearance. But, 6.7" is close or about right.
I never knew there was such an item as undercarriage protection plates. I can't see a need of getting any undercarriage plates. And besides, would there be room for such an item.
I had the reference to an old thread (search or google) on the fan replacement between these two scuts. The one advantage the massey had was it was a simple 20 minute procedure vs a much more complex maneuver on the BX to replace the fan.
I just threw this out as to alleviate some concern on the Massey fan setup. In particular with the Kubota, one would think after all these years the manufacturer would revise the mechanics of a fan replacement.
Btw, I had the predecessor model 2310 and IMO when compared to others it is an excellent scut setup.
