Well it arrived. Mounted a Bro-Tek thumb and skid plate now it is ready to work. I think I am going to really like the Backhoe.

I didn't know Bro-Tek made skids for the 2305.

Yes they do, quality made. 15 min install, protects the transmission filter and fan. I don't have a mid mower but I have heard of them not working them. After initial install probably only 2 or 3 min on and off.

Thanks, I will contact Richard about them. We keep the MMM on except during the winter months.

Love the thumb! Good luck and pick up a 47 blower for those Maine winters!

Best,

Good luck with the tractor, the add ons look to be wise add ons especially the skid plate.

Looks like a nice setup.

I miss my 2305 that I bought back in 2005

It moved snow nicely here when the banks had to be pushed back.

I never had any other attachments for it though.

Very nice unit
