Guys, I just purchased a BX2660 with the 60" deck and was wondering what blades are available for this deck besides the standard blade. I did some searching on the site and it wasn't real clear what was available. I saw some post where guys are using gator blades with a home made bushing and others that were using the Kubota mulch blade. My dealer has a mulch blade but it didn't seem to have any additional lift over the standard blade. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Click on http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/...9803-gator-blades.html?highlight=gator+blades and read away, complete with Kubota high lift part # and Gator Blade part #s for the BX deck that doesn't need the spacer to make the correct hole size.
Thanks for the thread Milkman. Good bit of info there.
Here is what I have summarized between the thread and my research for blades that will work with the 60" BX deck:
1. Kubota Standard Blade 20 9/16 w/ .875 (7/8) Hole PN. K5371-99040
2. Oregon/Gator Blade 20 9/16 w/ .906" Hole PN. 96-612
3. Kubota Mulch Blade (not High Lift) 20 9/16 w/ .875 (7/8) Hole PN. 70000-25020
4. Kubota High Lift Blade 20 9/16 w/ 1.125" Hole PN. 70000-25011 (requires spacer 1.125" OD to .875 ID cat1 to cat2 sleeve cut down to work)
