KK back blade for BX2200

[g42guy]

I can get a 5' KK back blade with tilt for $230. I know KK may not be the prettiest but they seem heavy duty enough for the BX. I don't see how it would not handle anything the tractor could.

Can any other blade come close to that price and still have tilt??

That sounds like a decent price, but I think you will find 6' is going to be quite a chore to pull with a BX!!

You are right! I am mistaken! In my head I was saying 5' but the fingers typed 6. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I have a KK 5' blade for my BX and it fits pretty nice but I had to lower the bottom 2 pins in order for the 3pt to lift it high enough. My feeling is the 6' may be a little to big for the BX2200.

How did you do it?

I relocated the lift pins to the lower bolts holes on the lift arms. I bought two new bolts where the pins went 7/8th inch. You need to drill the holes bigger so that the pins will fit. It is a 7/8th inch drill bit. I also had to put the pins facing in to get it to fit as the mower bracket is kind of wide for a BX2200.

I mentioned I had a 5' cutter but I really have a 4' cutter /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif. The 4' cutter is pretty much as big as I would buy for a BX2200.

see attached picture.

I'm confused? Are we talking about a back blade or a rear cutter?

I was talking about back blades, but thanks anyway Pemad. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

ooops, I guess I was half asleep when I posted my prior responses. Sorry folks for the mess up! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I do have a 5' KK back blade with no mods and I have a 4' KK rotary cutter with the mods I explained in a prior post. Both implements work great on the BX2200.

Before you settle on the KK blade..........look at the Midwest Blade . They have a 5' with tilt AND offset at 277 lbs.
