You know JJZ, this isn't bad advice. Maybe they'd be willing to deal a little bit since its already on the tractor? I know you already have a rear blower........ bit it would sell no problem. You'd reeeeeeeeeeeeeeealy like the front blower!

I'm sure that I would like the front blower, but I actually do use the loader quite often this time of year for moving bags of wood pellets from barn to house. I also clamp the Payne's forks on every now and then as well as a clamp on Reese hitch to move the two trailers around when needed.
Am seriously considering welding a couple of small plates onto the spots where the forks and hitch clamp on to save it from screwing down into the steel of the bucket. It made a couple of nice indentations on the 790 bucket.

If you think that you may want to put any impliments on the front (plow, snowblower, broom) you might ask the dealer to leave the quick hitch installed on the tractor as they are hard to come by and worth about $1000.

This doesn't sound like such a bad deal. Too bad he's several states away from me but maybe someone else here on TBN can take advantage. $512 to ship to me. No good.

The rim guard made a huge difference to the stability and ride on my 3030. I elected not to fill the turf tires on my GL 3540 as it would make it a little to heavy for my primary use. I do use a 1000 lb. weight box when i do serious fel work.

I have a call out as yet unanswered if my dealer uses rimguard...but I am thinking they will be calcium chloride. I asked (email) if they know a local place that uses Rim Guard.? I really like the non corrosive aspect of Rim Guard. They have 1 month prior to my delivery date to fudge for an answer. I will update..

Send an email to rimguard and ask them who the dealers are that are near you.I did this a couple weeks ago and they sent me a reply the next day.

JJZ: You should email that guy w/ the quick attach and tell him how the freight is coming up- it's heavy but not that heavy! The price he has in there is a steal for the unit. Maybe you can arrange your own shipping.

Munchie,

Check the model number before you make an offer. The quick hitch that fits the B3030 is Model # B2791. The picture of the one for sale doesn't look like mine. For what its worth, I was able to pick up a never used one from a fellow TBN'er for $350. Good luck.

That ones off a 3030 Ace and the guy has a box of brackets to attach to other models.

Great! Then go for it. If the shipping is still high you might want to just get the one already on the tractor and package it into the deal.
