That’s exactly what I do. I did a tiller and a snow plow for my bx.

This blower will get kubota orange and kubota stickers this spring. Along with the plow.

It was fun playing. I was a little disappointed in the blower tho. I barely threw the snow
At all. Kind of just puked it out th too. I was running about 560 rpm at the pto so that wasn’t the issue.

I also bought a BX, the 23 hp BX25D. I really wanted to love it, but I couldn't accept the weaker loader lifting ability. The backhoe was actually the best part of that machine. I only had it for 5 months and then sold it private party and ordered my B2650 the next day. I'm in love with my B2650.

I enjoyed my bx. I worked it very hard and it did everything I needed it to do. But being more than 3/4 of its hours were doing tractor work instead of mowing. I decided to get a real tractor and I’ll find a dedicated mower.

I agree, mine did everything I asked it to... Except lift large skid steer grapples that I was being paid to repair, and lift a full bucket of damp clay over the side of a dump trailer. But aside from that, I forced it to get the job done. I did always feel like I was being rude to the thing... Like it was good, but my being me...I would destroy that poor little guy over time.

I’m still deciding on a grapple. There are some ones out there for a good price. I would like a everything attachments one but there so darn expensive. But they are also lighter because they are made out of thinner but stronger steel. The one I’m looking at 500lbs.

I'm going to go with the EA Wicked Root Grapple, if I recall correctly it's around 250 lbs.

Yeah, that’s what I should do too. I’m just to cheap. I don’t think I will use it enough to really justify the cost difference. The 60” one I’m looking at I can get shipped to my door for about 750-800. Compared to 1500+ for the EA

I got the EA 50" single lid which weighs under 300# and I love it! I just felt there is no need to go any larger or heavier for a B2650.
