That's not teasing. Just good info for us orange guys. I take it that you need a mid point shaft to power the blower. Now for the worst part... It's been said that front blowers are much more costly than rears. About how much is the difference to a similar size rear blower?

The Farmking/Buhler rear mount 50 inch is $1995 and the 60 inch is $2195. This may help. Ken Sweet

Depending on whose rear blower we go against....
I would say aprox $2k more on a front mount.
The nicest thing about it is there's a power angle blade and a broom coming soon to hook to the same quick hitch!

And you don't have to drive the tractor backwards, looking over your shoulder. That gets old, very fast. Factor in the cold, blowing wind, and a front mounted blower starts looking pretty sweet. That Bobcat looks like it could handle a bigger blower that the one pictured Ric. Nice setup.

If you're doing a quarter mile or more of blowing, and over 40 years old, you're injuring yourself with a rear mount. If you own an acreage or farm tractor and you've ever thought of getting a lawn or garden tractor with a snowblower on the front just to clear your drive, that should tell you right there.

Wallace, looks good, what is involved installing it, and then changing from a snowblower to FEL?
It looks like it would fit on my 235 great!

what is that thing? ha ha. Really never have seen one though. (front or rear mount). That would be so weird for a Ms. guy can't even imagine having to blow snow just to use your driveway. But if you have some now I would love for you to blow it all over my 14 day in a row 115 degree heat index driveway.
