Yeah I know,, aint nuttin gona happen to me,,,
I have heard that too many times in the last 37 years doing safety work. As far as tree branches do like I did walk around and cut them off as high as you can reach, your trees will thank you for it and you will drive around unencumbered. OH and afor I forget,, DO NOT TRY TO PUSH THE BRANCHES OUT OF THE WAY,, don't ask
Don't worry I won't say a word, my lips are sealed.
Oh btw HIGH FIVE LMAO
I bought the first actuator on eBay. After making my brackets my geometry changed and I only need a 2" actuator, so I changed things and also made it adjustable. as for the wiring I ran a new fused circuit from battery to dash switch, and back to actuator. Weather pack connectors and a good grade tinned marine wire, done once and done right... At least I think so
I'll post pictures soon...added pictures to album

Chad,
I have the same machine and think I see some similarities.
You have a bigger box than me - jealous
I have the third function valve I believe just like you - nice
Did you ever get a grapple?
I have the everything attachments 54" grapple and love it, although with my 48" box blade, I still could use more weight back there. I'll never see snow so can't comment on the blower.
I've had my machine maybe 5-6 months and have over 75 hours on her, I love it. I'm sure you will too.
Your light setup is very nice too.

Thank you! I had a 48" BB behind my bx, no way would I want that behind this B2650 think I would get frustrated. I do have the third function installed, but have not bought a grapple as of yet. As soon as spring rolls around I think the itch to buy one will become unbearable...lol I have been toying with the idea to run hoses from the 3rd function to the back for a hydro top-link..that is my next project as of now.
