Thanks everyone. All good food for thought. I don’t know how to weld, otherwise I would just modify the box. The gripe about pat’s QH is valid, but I do run a rear blade for snow removal that requires quite a bit of top link lengthening to get the angle right. I think I’d be jumping on and off...

The only implement I have that isn’t compatible with pat’s quick hitch is a kubota ballast box. Being that I have extra time at Home due to covid-19, I decided to empty my ballast box and replace the draw pins with longer pins to accommodate the quick hitch. The longest cat 1 pin I could find at...

Beckmurph, thanks for the pic. This pretty much confirms I’ll stick to a 20 foot bed. I know it’s easy enough to take the gate off in order to overhang, but then where do you store the gate to get the tractor back on the trailer? This predicament makes a car hauler appealing since the ramps can...

Thanks for the replies. I’ve definitely narrowed it down to tandem axle with brakes. I’d prefer 20’ over 18’, but 20’ 7,000 GVW is very hard to find, especially in a landscaper. Most of the 20’ landscape trailers I’ve come across are rated for 10,000 lb. However, my current tow vehicle isn’t...

I have the B2650 with 60”MMM. My main use is mowing 4 acres of fairly hilly lawn, but the total property is 15 acres. I went with the B2650 instead of a BX series due to the need to maintain the entire property. However, if it was just the 4 acres of grass I would have likely gone with the BX...

Looking for a trailer to haul my B2650 with FEL and Rear Blade. Currently have a year and a half old 6x12 single axle utility trailer that I’ll be trading/selling. Length with FEL and Rear blade is 16’ 8”. Currently considering 7x18 or 7x20 utility trailers and car haulers. Tow vehicle is a...

Cool pics Dirtydeed! Looks like it got it down to a light film. My driveway is south facing and tends to melt pretty quick with the afternoon sun, so if I can get the same result I think I’ll be in good shape. I picked up a used land pride RB2672. Have not received it yet. Hoping the extra...

The dealer suggested bolting a section of polyethylene board onto my bucket. I’m curious as to whether adding the optional skid shoes to the land pride RB2672 would protect the driveway. I really appreciate all the input. I’m thinking the FEL/Rear blade combo might be the best fit for my budget...

I really appreciate all the replies thus far. My first thought was to pick up a rear blade for use with the FEL and SSQA bucket. The more I researched the option, the more it seemed like this would only handle light snows. When I looked into front blades, the cost was so high that I thought the...

Hi All, New to the forum. Bought a B2650 this August after moving to a new home on 15 acres. 11 acres in corn and Hay, about 4 acres to mow. Got the 60” MMM and the loader with 60” quick attach bucket and ballast box. Mowing and general chores have been great, but now thinking more about snow...
