Snow snow blower

Lea · Nov 23, 2013

Hi Guys
I have a 2320 Kubota that I want to put a snowblower on. My idea is to take a rearmount and remodel it to fit on the front. What I am looking for is a gearbox that I can mount on the rear pto with a shaft coming out and facing toward the front of the tractor, I can then run a drive shaft to the front.
The center mount pto that is on it runs at 2500rpm which is too fast for my purposes.
However I am having trouble finding a gearbox, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lea

Might be money and a whole lot of time ahead to look at an Irvine front mount (rear drive)blower.

I looked into buying a gear box to run off my mid pto, forward to an older snowblower designed for 540 RPM. I needed to not only reduce the RPM, but also reverse the rotation. Decided it wouldn't be worth the money, so I'm going with a front mount plow. Just my experience.

Use the mid PTO on your tractor. It already is reversed to run the proper direction! it just needs to be geared down from I think it's 2,000 rpm to roughly 600 rpm.
