Mid Mount PTO for B7500 Kubota

[PriceWOwens]

I have a B7500 and I recently purchased a subframe model B2733. I was told that to run a snowblower I need the mid mount pto shaft kit, which is not
made for my tractor anymore. From reading the forums I have seen the B2750D and BX2750D blowers will work with my tractor (at least for the 7610
that seems to be about the same as mine frame wise) and wondering what kits would work for the pto shaft. I understand there are different lengths
but there must be some commonality with them even if they may have different part numbers. If I bought a B2750 with all the parts including the subframe
and pto kit could I substitute that pto onto my subframe. I think it is crazy that Kubota would tell me they don't make this part anymore. Folks at Kubota
are not very helpful.

My dealer installed a new B2781B (List $2,900) Front Snowblower on my new in 2003 B7500 HSD-R in October 2017. The purchase installation included a B2733A (List $967) Quick Hitch, B2734 (List $425) Mid PTO Kit and B2736 (List $200) Front Half PTO Kit. Total price was $4,150, plus sales tax, picked up, installed and delivered. Very nice rig!

That is great. I was never given any of this info from the tech serv people at Kubota but the dealer was not any better locally. Thank you for the info. I think they should all be available then. Do you know anything about the older bx2750 with my quickhitch. I can get a good deal on that model but I have seen the B2781 also on some listings. Did you have a chance to use that blower this year. Are you happy with the overall performance as the tractor only has 21hp.

Also I wanted to ask about the mid pto. Is the front pto shaft the one connecting the snowblower and the mid pto connecting the pto output of the tractor to the hitch shaft. I have seen the 12 inch shaft that is mounted on the subframe and wondering if that was part of your transaction or did they go along with the subframe.

I actually quoted both the B2781B and the BX2750. The BX2750 quote was $1,999 List for the Snowblower, $967 List for the B2733A, $425 List for the B2734, and $178 List for the B2735 Front Half PTO Kit for $3,395 plus sales tax, but including pickup, installation, delivery. You need someone more knowledgeable than me to comment on your quick hitch, if it is a B2733 (without the "A"), as they are different. I used the Blower 8-10 times this winter and was very pleased with its operation and performance. I did not ran out of horsepower and did not break a shear pin. It takes considerably less time than my previous Front End Loader bucket (4' wide) and 6' wide Rear Blade combination. The B2735 or B2736 Front Half PTO Kit connects the Mid PTO Kit to the Snowblower. The B2731 Mid PTO Kit includes the driveline from the Mid PTO to the "Male Quick Hitch and Subframe" B2733A, and a short "output shaft" that is attached to the Quick Hitch/Subframe and which connects the mid PTO Shaft to the Front PTO shaft.

Thanks again. They should make you a dealer. You have given more info than I have gotten from Kubota. That is what I was wondering when reading about the A on your subframe. I just need to confirm any differences between mine and yours. Mine might actually be the A but it was not described that way. Will look at it and see what it says. If they are similar then I can probably buy the B2734 mid pto, and then determine which blower I will purchase and go from there in getting the front half pto kit. My local guy is not very helpful so I will probably reach out to another dealer. I noticed on youtube Messicks does lots of good stuff with Kubota and they might be the people to talk with. My local dealer seems to be overpriced with everything.
