59" snowblower mounting confusion on a 3320

[ktm010]

Found a 59" snow blower 2 years old, was said to be mounted on a JD3120. Pic's sent to me look nothing like the A frame newer style mounts. Owner says it was dealer installed no retrofitting. I sold my JD955 with snow blower and this one looks to be the same mount type. Question would be does anyone have one similar mounted to a JD3320.

Yeah,
I bought a used 59" for my 3520 and that is the hitch and mount that came w it. It does fit but it is closer to the grill, and I need to leave the grill guard off when the blower is on. The hitch is a really expensive part of the kit.

With the grill guard removed, did the mount bolt right up to existing holes in the frame or did it require welding or something.

Bolts right up

you certainly could convert it over to the front 3ph design with
the A frame coupler, then it would have interchangeability with the blade/broom
if you wanted to add on.

I also need to use the 300CX loader with forks for the winter fire wood. So I need to change back and forth. Thanks for info guys

I put a 7' snow blade on the front of my 4300, with the FEL removed.
I pick up the forks with the iMatch on the 3 ph for moving pallets of firewood to the house.
The JD forks for the 430 FEL converted to iMatch compatible with very little work.
Will have to add tho that the hyd. top arm makes it much better than just a manual top arm.

Purchased the snowblower looks to be in great shape, bolt pattern looks right and frame spacing measures right. This fall I'll try to bolt her up.

How'd it go?

It looks like I will need my loader on a few times this winter. Does anybody know if you can leave the blower hitch on, while taking the loader on and off?

I don't believe that you can, but you will be able to find that out very quick, once you try.
