Does any one have any pics of how the front blade hooks up on the BX. I have a Blade for a John deere and was thinking of modifying it to fit my BX. It has a hyd. lift cylinder but is manual swivel. I was thinking of making a mounting bracket likes on the john deere lawn and garden tractor and bolting it to the front of the BX frame where the brush gard bolts on. But dont know if thats a good place or not, could i damage the frame pushing snow from there?

it mounts to the same quick hitch used for the snowblower, sweeper, etc.

Harleyscooter, Does the front of the frame take all the pressure when pushing with the blade, Thats what i was concerned about. I didnt know if it has some kind of subframe or not. I know on the 317 john deere its originally off of it just hooks up to the front of the frame, so thats how i was going to make work but my Dad said i should be cautious because The BX is alot more powerful than his little JD.

Yes it just connects to the front, the sub frame connects with two pins to the bracket below the frame, and a pair of clamp blocks on top of the frame. The frame is solid up front. I can try to find the manuals that came with it, tomorrow and see if I can scan the assembly pictures if that would help you.

thanks i would really appreciate that. Ive been looking through some old post and seen wher another member on here made a mounting system for a yanmar for the same blade. we dont get much snow wher im at but sometimes we do, i usually use my FEL , but the blade use to work pretty good on the little 317, My dad bought it new when i was pretty young it still runs good but my new driveway is really steep, so im going to steal his blade for my BX, or should i say our BX. LOL . He wont admit it but i think the Kubota is starting grow on him, When i first got it he would still mow with his deere , but i think the power steering is winning him over. He is 76 and doesnt like the foot control too much, He has worked hard all of his life and doesnt move to well anymore but he still keeps going.
