I found the video! I knew that I had seen that somewhere. They are actually pushing quite a bit of snow. I looked at the snow blower that you are adapting, and it looks like it will work really well. I am surprised at how many Kubota parts seem to be interchangeable, or close, with Iseki's but I guess they are and were built in Japan in the same market. YOu probably remember my posts, but I got my rims that were an exact fit, and identical patterns, and my rear hitch, with a very small hole mod from Kubotas. What type of modification do you have to make for it to fit? That might be a god option for me if I can find one. The Kubota parts seem to be a bit more abundant. I wish that we had a bit less snow. I had to clear about 16 inches yesterday, and another 2 this morning, but for us, it has actually been a bit less snow this year. We had a few storms last year, that was close to 28 inches at a time. It seems like you either get too little, or to much, but the weather patterns are so crazy lately, the south has been getting our snow. Look forward to seeing the progress on your new snow blower. Do you have to weld the attachment points?

That's cool you found that video - thanks for looking! I looked a little more after my post and still couldn't find it. The guy certainly is moving quite a bit of snow. A snow thrower would definitely move much more slowly but give the ability to move the snow farther in the end. The blade is a handy option though, and a fully hydraulic v-plow is the ultimate for a blade. I'm guessing something like that would run at least $2k and might push 3 from a retailer. Making one would be a challenge it would seem. I think the JD 54" 4-way blade I have runs $1,500 new for a straight blade. I shot a "part 1" video of the Kubota B2650 today and I'll start a new thread for it rather than post it here to make it easier for people to find in the future who come across a Kubota thrower and wish to adapt it. I think I answered your questions in the video but if not let me know and I'll certainly tell you what I know about it so far!

I actually also just found a very interesting Yanmar part that looks like it might fit the top link tow attachment. Have you ever seen one like this?

Never seen that one, but that's whats intersting about tractors - you get to see a lot of things a person has never seen before

Can't say I've ever seen the "3-pt gloves" either. Maybe it allows a tractor to milk a cow? It truely is amazing what these things can do! :laughing:

I do like the looks of those older Yanmar tractors. They seems to be kind of rare like the older Isekis. I love to drive one some day, especially the power shift versions.

That's crazy to put a hitch that high. It'll kill someone. The pull point must be below the line of the rear axle or the tractor will flip if the trailer catches on something solid.

This is a great collection of pictures and videos. Thanks.

Quite agree Rod in Forfar; well done Mitch will spend some time looking at all the videos during the evenings. Our TX1510 is now coming into its own having had the clutch replaced a few months ago
and I've started building a few implements with the help of a farmer friend who is a whizz with welding. Will post some pictures/video when finished. Some great ideas and help from TBN in this respect
as ever.
