searched and not found: what front snowblower mounts are compatible with an LX?

[Showmedata]

Hi all,

New soon-to-be LX3310 owner here. I'm hoping to find a used front-mount snowblower before next winter, but I'm having trouble finding a reference to tell me which mounts are compatible with the LX. I found where someone had posted a Kubota reference with this info for the L & Grand L tractors (probably a dealer's guide). Has anyone seen similar for the LX? I'm hopeful that it fits anything made for the "big B" tractors, which would make find a used item at least a possibility.

Thanks,
Ray

Been a while since I used it, but try the Build My Kubota site. I think it will give you front hitch and snow blower model numbers, etc.

Try both LX model tractors, and B series also to look for common hitch and blower models.

Thanks, BMyers. That doc indicates that LP has -no- front-mount snowblowers for the LX. The two listed are rear-mount 3-pt blowers, unless I'm mistaken.

Hmm. Building an LX leads to an LX2940 quick hitch. Building a B2650 shows no option for a front quick hitch at all (am I blind?), but *does* list options for the front snowblowers. That's confusing.

What I'll probably do is just pick up a used 3-pt blower to use next winter and see how bad driving in reverse really is. Then I'll know how motivated I am to spend more on a front-mount. Storage space for the front-mount is a bit of a concern, I don't have an abundance of flat ground.

Thanks for your help.

I know there are front mount ones, GP Outdoors on Youtube has one from Landpride for his front mount on his LX tractor.

lx2963 vs lx2980 snowblowers

I'm looking at purchasing an LX2601 and in the "Build My Kubota" section, this is what is listed for front snowblowers: 63" RESIDENTIAL SNOWBLOWER (LX2963) 51" COMMERCIAL SNOWBLOWER (LX2970)...

Maybe pick a snowblower for the B2650, and the front hitch/mid PTO should follow?

As B2650 is no longer marketed under that model #, the BUILD app may not be accurate....just guessing. What's it say for a B2601?

Seems like the front hitch for those is the "duck-bill" style that's been around a while for BX's and B's. The 4-point hitch is new to this newest generation of tractors, I thought.

Building a B2650 with snowblower didn't give me a clear path. could be the builder tool, could be me.

Since the B2601 is a smaller chassis than the LX**01 or B**50, I'm worried that the front-mount won't fit. maybe the draw bar fore-aft adjustment is enough to make up the difference, not sure.

I don’t know if they are still available, but the front mount blower for a B2650 in the 63” width is a B2782B. The quick hitch and subframe for a cabbed B2650 is a B2714C. The mid PTO drive kit for a cabbed tractor is B2793. Now whether any of this would fit a LX series I don’t know, but from what I do know, there are a lot of common parts between the B2650, and the LX series. Of course all of this info may be irrelevant, but thought I would throw it out there. The items listed are OEM Kubota part numbers, not land pride.

edit: There Is also a listing for a B2650 ROPS, and B3350 ROPS, mid PTO driveline kit that is a B 2747. And A mid PTO driveline kit for a B2301, and B2601 that is a B2798. Again maybe useless info but who knows

On my Lx2610, I have the following:
LX2940 Subframe & 4-point hitch
LX2941/LX2942 - Drive System (K-Connect Module)
LX 2963 - 63" Residential Snowblower
Hope this helps.

And all different than my B2650 63" B2782b front blower and subframes.
