I want to put a 2-stage snow blower on the front of my B7100. It has the front pto with electric clutch. My options would be to use the 48" 3-point unit I have, or buy a garden tractor blower. I also have an old Kubota single-stage with all the linkage for my tractor. Has anyone adapted a two-stage before? I think the rpm's need to be reduced about 3:1.

Kubota offered a front mount 2 stage blower for the B7100. It was called Model B-222A Rotary Snow Plow. It was made by McKee Brothers and was the same as their model #220.
I have one for my B7100, however before I bought it someone modified it to use on the back with a 3point hitch.
The Owners manual shows the subframe and the belt pulley gear reduction unit for use on the front.
