Mowing FS 60" Kubota mowing deck, any interest?

snal · Mar 26, 2008

I'm looking at a package deal which includes a 60" Kubota mowing deck that has been used on a 2003(?) 2320...I have no use for the deck, but the seller will only sell as a package. It's supposed to have new blades. I can't afford this package unless I can find someone who will buy the deck, I can get pics, and any info needed if someone is interested in it. The price will be $1000 and it will need to be picked up in western NC, I can meet the buyer somewhere within a 75 mile radius of Asheville.
If you're interested, please email me at snal at bellsouth dot net ASAP

Update! The mower deck is model RCK60B-22BX. Can anyone tell me what tractor(s) this will fit?

Are you sure it is not mounted on a BX2230? Think that is the deck for the BX2230 BX23 and maybe BX2200 and BX22.

and what makes it only fit these models?

The BX1800, and Bx1850 have shorter wheelbases, and the mower mount is different. The BX2350, and BX24 have longer wheelbases, and again, the mounting points are different. The BX2200, BX22,BX2230, and BX23 are the same.

The 1500 had the shorter wheelbase as it was only the two cylinder. The problem with the 1800 and 1830 there is not quite enough horsepower. The 1850 and 2350 BXs are slightly different on the rearend design and linkages and come with a lighter deck now. Oddly enough my BX2230 and G2160 use basically the same deck it is just the attachment points that are different and gearbox direction, so with some welding you may be able to make it work on something else. Only other thing that I can say is that it would be hard for me to break up that package just for $1000 the deck mows too good and would be looking at other things to get rid of.

You're correct...it was used on a 2230.
I have a camper set up at a local lake, and the implements are owned by the campground. They are keeping the tractor, PHD, BS, and rear blade, but selling a 4' bush hog and the mower deck. All were new in 2003/2004. Not only do I not have a need for the mower deck, but it won't fit my BX24 anyway. I need the bush hog, but they are selling as a package only, or trading both towards a pull behind finish mower if I don't buy them.
Shouldn't the mower be worth $900-$1200 in good shape with new blades?
Lot's of folks in my area have BX tractors...but they already have mowers.

Sure, it's probably worth that much. The only one I've seen in my area was $900, new ones are around $1700 if you can find them for the older BX's.

If you're willing to palletize it and drop it off at a shipping company you'll sell it quick!
