I have a BX 2230 and I am thinking about putting a 3 point hitch Finishing Mower on it. I have a Quick Hitch Cat 1 and hydraulic Center Link now on it.
My question is do I go with 5 foot wide or does this tractor have the HP for 6 foot????? I would like to hear from anybody who has this. This would be for lawn mowing only around my house. I do not want any MMM on this tractor.
Thanks to all

Yeah a 6 foot mower would be WAY to much for a BX to handle. I'm honestly kinda leary about wanting to run a 5 foot mower behind there. General rule of thumb is you want to have your impliments just a little bit wider then the rear tires.
