Kubota BX2200..Need pixs of snowblower mounted..

[DonPA]

If anyone can help out I'd sure appreciate it. I'm just about ready to mount a bit of a custom snowblower to the front of my BX2200 and would like a "side shot" picture if anyone can take one and post it/email it. I need a shot about maybe 5'-6' away? My question is going to be how far away the blower is mounted from the front bumper/frame? I have the quick hitch system with the snowblade already on.....I'm fabricating another female quick hitch tomorrow and need to know the rough distance that the snowblower sets in front of the tractor. Of course, this needs to be done before I can finish the front driveshaft.

A measurment from the front of the tractor bumper/frame to the centerline of the auger running through the blower would do nicely....or a jpg??

Thanks for your consideration/advice.

PS, glad I found this group!!

Don,
Here is a pic showing the blower attaches to my 2200. The front drive shaft is approx 16 inches or so. Of course you have to leave enough room for the shaft to collapse when you raise the unit.
Good luck

Geez, that's just PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks a million.

Actually the project SHOULD be pretty simple, just mounting a 2650 snowblower on a BX. It was also a front mount so rotation will be correct. The pto speeds are both 2500 so np's there. Heck, even the drive shaft splines match up

I just finished tearing the blower down and I'm checking bearings/chains etc. I'll keep the group informed of my progress and post a few pixs as I progress. I'll keep them in this thread.

Once again, I REALLY appreciate it.
