25-30hp Bx models

[WolverineMarine]

A 25-30hp bx series is potentially in my future if they have 1-2 remote rear hydraulic ports available with the pto and 3 point hitch. Are those all available on one of these tractors?

Rear PTO and 3 point hitch are standard, the rear hydraulics are an option.

BX series will not get that high......true there is a 26hp bx, but if you need more, you will have to go with the "B" or "L" series.

I've had several different tractors. HP has ranged from a low of 18 to 30. My 18 hp BX seems to do all that is needed. I had a larger blue one with only 18 HP. Had no trouble doing significantly more work effort with that larger tractor and no problem of not enough power. I'd forget the idea of lots of power for the size of the BX. You probably don't need it.

I'll be plowing snow in the neighborhood and using a pto mounted rear snow blower in addition to some light land clearing at our home in Minnesota and our land in Wisconsin. The reason why I asked about the rear hydraulics is to be able to use other implements for food plot prep and possibly a 3 point mounted log splitter.

Anything below a compact utility tractor won't suit our needs

Just note,, the bx has very limited ground clearance, 5 to 6 inches. Working in the woods is it's biggest challenge.

I guess I'll just be going into a B series. It's more what we'll be needing.

jpz has a good point, I use my tractor as a mini skidder. It is a B2620 and has about double the clearance. I also have a stand alone splitter and I can bucket the wood to the splitter, kinda like bench work. Cant do that with a 3 pt splitter

That's a great looking setup! I really like your grapple on the bucket and is that like an 8" inch steel pipe probably filled with concrete for counterweight on your 3 point?

10 inch well casing x 50 inches plus concrete. about 400 lbs. tucks in tight and low for getting about the woods.

If you aren't in a big hurry the new BX line will be out this fall is what I hear from my dealer. What is the land like you will be working? I have a BX25 and with the hills it is perfect, the B series was too big for most of my needs.

Actually, the new BX series will be available for order at the dealer meeting in early October so best case would 60 days after that?????
