50" Reverse Till Hoe

[Ozzie B2920HSD]

Hello one and all, I am new here and hope you can help me.....

I have a B2920HSD and I want a reverse till hoe for it, I was told by the dealer that they aren't made anymore but I have found that there are several manufacturers.

problem one is they don't sell the FL1271RC in Australia anymore, but I believe they do in the USA. Problem two is the genuine blades for it are very expensive unless someone on here knows where to get them cheaper?...

Land Pride make a reverse till hoe but the importer in Australia doesn't have any 50" ones right now, I would like a RTR2548 but they say they don't make that despite it being in their part manuals?

The Woods distributor in Oz doesn't have any 50in in stock either.

Both the Land Pride and the Kubota are almost $5,000 here in Oz, does anyone have a really good secondhand or new one I could bring in?

Thanks for reading, I think this forum is wonderful.

I can't really help you on the reverse till. Does anyone over there sell King kutter tillers? My brother had a 48" with 6 tines per row. It would really eat the ground up. It was all his 7500 wanted and even had to pull it in 4wd. When it went in the ground the tractor would stop unless it was locked in. The KK tiller are well built and are gear driven instead of chain. Just a thought.

Thanks Bulldog, I had a FL1021RC behind my B7100HST I had to take it slow but it did a beautiful job....

I think there might be King Kutter here somewhere but not reverse till....

I've never seen a reverse till in action. That seems to be important to you so what is the benefit? You must know something I don't if you don't mind to share.

Hi, the reverse till chops the soil up better and it pulls itself down into the soil so it wont jump and buck all the time on hard ground.

That makes since. If you can find a KK tiller you won't have to worry about it getting in the ground. My brother had to run his 7500 in 4wd to pull his tiller. In 2wd the tractor would loose traction as soon as the tiller started biting in.
His tractor would handle my 62" bushhog tiller easier than it did his 48" KK. If I had it to do over I would have bought a KK for myself.
