Price Check BX Blower price

[upgw]

OK, Assuming I can make some mods and reuse the 4 way valve from the FEL, what can I expect to pay for the snowblower? Is it hard to install/remove as the dealer states?

Thanks,

Patrick,

Sorry I can't quote prices but keep in mind you'll need the quick hitch subframe, PTO drive and the blower itself. If you have the 4way loader valve you'll need the added quick connects to disconnect the loader arm and ram to keep the joystick on the tractor. Woodstock has a better way, see...

Getting the quick hitch on/off isn't bad and hooking up the snowblower once it is on is like the name, quick, and easy. The real bear is the joystick and it is messy so I'll be taking Woodstocks advise and finding a better way. I'd like to find a control lever to fill the open spot next to the seat. I think that would be just the ticket to control the quick hitch and not have to mess with the joystick.

Good luck with pricing,
Michael
