Price Check iMatch & Balast Box

[Elklakedoug]

Any input on what you've paid for an iMatch and balast box? I have a new 2320 and need balast for the FEL use...:thumbsup:
THANKS-

No idea (can't remember), but know it was well worth whatever it was.

Seriously though...I think the iMatch is going for close to $300 now and the BB about $200 or so.

You're right on with the prices. Bought a hitch last Spring.
However, in retropect, the Pat's Easy Change works better for less money (had one on my 790...gave it away when I traded the tractor and wish I'd kept it).

You will also need an iMatch bushing adapter kit. The issue is the iMatch is a one size fits all offering from JD and is sized for CAT-3 implements. The ballast box is CAT-1. The JD kit (BW15056) is somewhat costly for what you get. It also does not include a top link pin which your ballast box may need as well. You can gather your own complete kit for less at various online ag stores.

I never had the use for the iMatch and figured it made the BB stick out that much further. But I don't change implements that often, once or twice a year.

The purchase of the iMatch includes one set of bushings.

Correct. One set comes with the iMatch. If you have multiple attachments you need additional bushing sets.

take 2 catI lower bushing and slide them into 2 catII bushings from your local tractor supply store and Bingo new set of bushings, should come in at a whopping $4 or so.
