Ballast Box for B2650

[Charles111]

Hi all, ive been looking around for a ballast box that will work with my Kubota quick hitch; QH15. Specifically one that works well without any major modifications.
Today i ran across:

Seems like a very well built ballast box and should work with my quick hitch. Wondering if anyone has heard if them and if they the ballast box? Thanks.

Around $389. Havent orered it yet, but its either this or a heavy hitch with weight set. ive heard good things about the heavy hitch products..

I purchased mine from Palletforks.com.
It's red, not orange but it was about $150. For my use it is just perfect.
And considerably cheaper. It does work with my quick hitch as well.

Just curious. I'm assuming since you have a quick hitch that you probably have several attachments already. Can you not just use them for ballast?

Looks like they've raised their prices. $257.36 for a red one.

yes. i also use attachments for ballast. sometimes though i need something more compact for close quarters.

Yeah. I looked at that before I posted. Mine is about 2 years old.
Perhaps the steel pricing affected it rather than greed. Sad to think it's another imported product...but then again it's on the Kubota. Gee....who makes that?
