VT W.... I don't know if you have the quick hitch set up for your front end snowblower.
On my BX23 I have the BX2750A that utilizes the quick hitch system... When I need to use my FEL, all I do is unhitch the the blower from the quickhitch and disconnect the hydrolic lines and leave the quickhitch on and then put on the FEL. I do have to remember the clearance in the front between the wheels is reduced because of the quickhitch. It never gets in the way of the FEL so I can move things with the bucket as needed. The swicthover takes all of 15 minutes. The only tricky part is lining up the FEL arms to the posts to seat right.
The switch back to the blower is quick because I did not take off the PTO mid shaft or the quickhitch adapter and it slips right on after the FEL is disconnected.
I couldn't be happier with this setup. Now only if they could invent a gravel that doesn't end up in the lawn.
