Grading BLADE PRICE

[glc24]

I need some info please.
Does anyone know the price for the John Deere 54" FEL mounted blade with Quick Tach and hydraulic kit? Basically,the bottom line to put this on my 2520. Thanks

Greg,

I got quoted just above and just below $1000 (from 2 different dealers) for the blade, Quick-tatch and hydraulic angling. This was not for a FEL mounted blade but the front-mounted. Not sure JD sells a FEL-mounted set-up for the 2000 series.

Another option is the "combo bracket" which allows swapping between the mower and front Quick-tatch without tools. Bracket is $114 list price.

Thanks John
I just emailed my salesman to see what he quotes me. I asked for prices on both the 54" and the 60". I'm thinking maybe you're right,that the frame mount might be a better way to go.
Maybe I got it mixed up with something else,but I thought there was a blade for the FEL

Thanks
Greg

There is no 60" frame mounted blade for that machine-there should be, but there is not. JD does have a FEL blade but it is NOT recommended for the 200 series loaders.

Thanks Ken,
Is your 380 the same type as the frame mount for a 2520? I may be wrong,but I think I saw a post where you mentioned something about modifying your snow blade.

The #380 is for the older x55 series tractors, it is built like a tank compared to the 54" blade used not on the 2000 series machines. Not sure why JD has stuck with this design for the bigger CUT's, they sure can handle more!

Probably because they waned to save money and maintain fewer designs.
