Front mount JD 666 snowblower

Anyone have one of these? Just wondering how people like/dislike this blower in a front mount setup.

Well, looking at the diagrams of the rear-to-front driveshaft & supports, it doesn't look like a lot of fun. Definately not "quick attach" like the Erskine rear driven, front mount blowers. However, from what I can tell, the under-belly driveshaft and support may not have to be removed. Looks like you could drop the unhook the blower and remove it and unhook the rear gearcase and remove it and leave the under-belly shaft installed. I'm also not even sure if the under-belly shaft will clear the front axle on a MFWD tractor.
