    Choosing between using walk behind snowblower vs BX1880 FEL

Kubota has 13+ hp at the pto and the blower is 250 + lbs so a good match for the 1880. I had a L2250 for 30+ years...

    $3500.00 for KUBOTA’s frt blower or a Meteor SB48 3pt hitch unit. Sound normal? Northern Tool has a 50 in rear for 1800.00 but it needs 16 hp.

    SSQA frt blade I looked at BXpanded frt blade but its a bucket clamp to setup. Any one know of SSQA blade to research and a rear mount 48 in or less blower that would work? Orange crusher, is that all Kubota equipment on your rig?

    Will a 1880 power a smaller 3point blower. I could leave the frt loader on and the blower would be the ballast i need. I could also buy i bigger walk behind for my smaller drive.
