I recently purchased an almost new Kubota BX Grass Catcher for my BX2200 w/60" deck (RCK60B-22BX).
The grass catcher was previously on a BX1500 w/48" deck so I have some conversion work to perform.
It mounts up fine to the PTO, frame, etc, but the area I am needing to fabricate or purchase some brackets for is mounting the Boot to the larger deck. I can find some okay pics to 54" decks and possibly newer 23BX decks but have yet to see any on the old BX2200 series with the 22BX 60" mid-mount deck.
I have pretty much exhausted my research with the local Kubota dealer and online images, etc. w/o finding exaclty how the Boot should be cut out and most importantly positioning to the deck. I've looked at many whole goods boot kits 3061/3051, etc but they are close, but not close enough.
If anyone has some pics of their actual BX2200-to-RCK60B-22BX setup please help me out. Winter is coming fast here in Wisconsin and fall leaf season seems to be getting skipped over once again.
Thank you,
Al

Hey so I have the exact same issue as you. I went from a 54 deck to a 60 and still have the PTO bagger however I have a BX1500. I called my local Kubota dealer today told him the model number of the deck and tractor and he has one on order for me should have it in 3-5 days. I will get you the part number when I pick it up by the end of the he week. Btw 160$ for that little piece of plastic!

My grass catcher project has been delayed for a few weeks due to impending cold weather and for some last minute painting/caulking before temps get too low. I plan on working on it next week again (11/20/20) hopefully before the snow here in southern Wisconsin. I will post pics and such.

Good luck with your project 183King.
