I have several pieces of Kubota equipment, but have been light in the tractor category for a few years now. All I currently have a B7800 with a front mount blower/broom that operate off the mid using an undercarriage. Im going to have a VERY hard time giving up the front blower. I plow several hundred yards through various terrain (would be a stretch to be more diverse than me for the whole route).
That said, the B7800 is a Might Mite that is just way too tiny to effective for me. A higher horse L is likely the mark if I am going for a single machine, but then Im out of the mid-mounts unless the equipment is newer. I appreciate 10 year old equipment. I have a literal fleet compared to most of amazing running machines because of that tactic. I have a bead on a 2013 L3800 with 300 hours, loader, hog and back blade for 14k. It's a nuts steal, so hard to not take that path.
Let me know what kind of front mount options I could pull off. I am more talented than most with a welder and fabbing. That said, Im tired . I am up any ideas. I am assuming it will be some external engine job hanging off the FEL QA. Any thoughts are appreciated no matter how crazy.
I know there are threads that have asked this, but they die pretty quick. I would like to brainstorm more if others are game.
EDIT: for awareness, I have had some 40 horse and 60 horse tractors on the property at times. They are ideal for my massive trees. That said, they are a bit big for snow and the like
