Snow BX25 Front Mount Snow Blower

[Whiteclover]

Does anyone know if the Loader will still attach to my BX25 after I have the front mount "Kubota Quick Hitch System" installed for my (ON Order) Front Mount Kubota snow blower. One dealer I spoke to said YES and one dealer said NO. Does anyone have a Kubota front mount blower on their BX 25? Are you happy with the performance. I am replacing a walk behind Honda 11-32 that would throw snow 50+ feet. The Honda is still working fine. I am just getting a little to old to walk behind for the 3+ hours it takes to clear our drive way and foot paths.

Everything I've read here says no, but I've never tried it on mine. I have the 54" front plow and the quick hitch is the same. I think before I mount my plow for snow duty, I'll measure the clearance to the FEL torque tube and bucket, but I think it's the round torque tube that causes the interference.

My dad have a BX 24 with the kubota 48 in front snow blower and there is no way you could fit / use the loader with the blower on it.

Talking for myself, even if it is awesome to have a front blower, I am still debating if I want to ''loose'' my FEL for 5 months.

My dad is very happy with is setup, but after is 1 st winter, he build a cab for it.

I have a BX24 with the BX2750D blower and BX2751 quick hitch and it wok awesome. Some will argue that the rear mount blowers are better and heavier but I have no issues with how mine performs. Can't use he loader with it on but switching back and forth isn't hard

the blower works real well. Just put it trhu 14" of heavy wet snow @2700 rpm and didn't clog it once. boy does it throw loose gravel (driveway is not frozen yet LOL) I haven't tried the loadeer and front quick mount yet but i will soon.

you can technically attach both most likely but the problem is that the loader would be useless because you wouldn't be able to lower it since it would hit the blower. The blower sticks off the front quite far...much further than you would think. I remember a picture of a guy getting his tractor delivered and they did have the loader and blower both mounted so it would all fit on the trailer. The only thing I don't like about my blower is the ground clearance is horrible because the quick hitch sticks down really far and it scrapes the concrete every time I go in and out of my barn

I believe the question was, can you leave the quick hitch for the blower on and use your loader? Not the quick hitch and the blower Just the quick hitch right? Well on my BX23TLB I could do that just remember that with the quick hitch on your front ground clearance is not very good so you would not want to go in the wood with it.

No

If the quick hitch is the same as the bx2660's then the loader's cross beam and landing gear will hit the quick hitch's cylinder.

It is the same. Thats what I thought but I never really tried it myself
