Didnt realize he was asking me about my cab.

Yes curtis cab with heat! I choked on the price when i first heard it, but damn it I worked hard for my money - so bit the bullet and bought it along with the blower. Wasnt $5,800 though for me in the states. I can't remember the exact number without finding my paperwork but I think $4,000 for the cab installed by my dealer bought at the same time as the HD front blower I think for $4400 or something like that with the hookups/pto and such.


The cab is really really nice, and as it should be for the damn high price they charge!
Yeah, I suspect the shipping to Atlantic Canada, plus the crazy dollar exchange rate has the Curtis Cab jacked up so crazy, plus the K dealer wanted $1000 to install. . . I just finished building mine (Photos to follow next week, I took the better points of the Curtis, plus a couple nice features of the TekTite cab, built them into mine, and had the Safety Tempered glass installed in rubber by Speedy Glass. I have SEVEN LED lights, pluys front and rear wipers (Plus washers). I have approx. $1000 in actual money in it, along with 6 weeks total tinkering time to build.

Snow held off until I got her back together. Snow was 8 inches deep and very dense. It was a b### to shovel by hand. Stuck to the shovel.

Anyhow did my drive and a neighbor with no sweat.

Knott,

Did you change anything to get the ROPS all the way down? I can pull mine back half way and it stops. I have a 2013 BX2670.

One of the changes between the BXxx70 and the BXxx70-1 was the way the ROPS folds down. I can't tell you what the exact difference is, but I read somewhere the hinges on the newer one are located a little higher and the top folds down further.

I just bought this BX2360 with FEL and B2789 snowblower and am ready for another in the Great White North (mower was just connected to trailer the tractor to its new home - it is now off). Hasn't snowed since I got it.

You can see my little JD hiding from the big bad Kabota. LOL

Snow Blower BX5455HD: With hydraulic chute rotation and linear actuator for chute deflection

The spreader does look nice.

I am using manual version this winter.

Have my BX2370 just under a month. Does a great job of clearing snow.

No it came that way from the factory.
