Spreader Dump wagon and broadcast spreader recommendations

[chemistski]

Looking for recommendations for possibly a dump wagon or maybe just a plain wagon and a broadcast spreader to hook up to either a kubota BX2350 or a JD2305? Any good products or web links to check out? I see plenty of stuff for a ball hitch hookup can they be converted to a 3 point hitch? Thanks for any input

There are lots of choices on the dump wagon. Too many.

As for the spreader, if you want a good one that is both American made and high quality, while only slightly higher in price that the imports, take a look at Herd Seeders. The M96 is used by quite a few TBN members, I have that model and love it, although I wish I had a larger unit for my needs. The bottom plate is heavy cast steel, the hopper is galvenized, overall it is very well built. The M96 is a good fit for Sub-compacts and small frame compact tractors.

Found a link for a wagon and it is almost $200.00 less than the one I got at a dealer, looks like the same wagon. wagon I've attached a pic of mine after I built the bed and adapted an unloader made for a P/U to the back of it, will unload a load of rock or wood in about 30 seconds.

I have to agree with you Bob. I bought a 5.5 Herd spreader for salt/sand and have used it with great results this winter on my BX23. The only mod I did was put a second set of pins for the three point a little closer together. It is a well built piece of equipment...and the company was excellent to order from too.
