All done! For those who may read this in the future this is what I ended up doing. I bought Pat's Easy Change from Rural King for $164 but tax took it to around $176. Gaining 3.5 inches on my lift arms required replacement of the top link (around $16 or $17 for a 17" - 26"), bought a PTO shaft...

I just put Pat's Easy Change on my BX25 this week...WORTH EVERY CENT! Interestingly enough it was cheaper from Rural King than Pat's website! Of course I had to get a longer PTO shaft that I shopped around for to get one that didn't require cutting down ($150 Georgia Equipment Co.) and a longer...

After looking and measuring I'll be buying a new PTO shaft, since FedEx is supposed to deliver the Pat's EC today I'm going to wait to take some final measurements just to make sure. Now for another question. Those Grizzly PTO shafts sure are a lot cheaper than say Eurocaran, I know most of the...

That will probably be what I'll get although I'm about to go out look what I have, take some measurements and see what I need. I do have a bunch of stuff from purchases of used equipment and now that I did a crash course on PTOs while in my tree stand for a few days I'll be able more...

All the slip clutches state 5' and larger, would one be desirable or effective on a 4 footer? I do know I'm splined on the tractor end and round on the mower end.

I'm pretty sure that'll be getting a new series 4 PTO shaft for it, I'll do the measurements Sunday when I get home. I waited a long time to own a tractor and kick myself in the butt for waiting so long everytime I think about it, I don't want to screw it up over a something so simple. The...

Back in my tree stand (the only place this phone works out here). I bought the mower used so I'm not sure what the previous owner did but there was much more square bar than sleeve on the shaft. I never did check phasing so there's that possibility. The shaft has no protective guards whatsoever...

Hi all, I just ordered the Pat's Easy Hitch for my BX25, it'll arrive in a few days. I know I'm going to have to check and make sure the PTO shaft will be long enough since I'll gain 3 to 4 inches on the lift arms. Soooo here's my confusion... I bought a used Howes 4' Bush Hog a few years ago...

I've read about this, what is wholegoods? On some old posts I saw numbers like $400 for the set for a BX, is that possible? Are these the same quality as OEM or are they OEM? Sorry for the basic questions but I'm new at this tractor stuff (but loving every minute of it)!!! :)

Industrial OTR Mastertrac.

The previous owner didn't know much about tractors, I think it might have been handed down to him from his parents. He lived in a neighborhood but a reverse lookup on his phone showed a small rural property near his home. I imagine he did a lot of snow plowing and probably drove a lot in 4WD and...

I have a new to me 2013 BX25 with 370 hours. The front tires need replaced being they're worn almost all the way on the outside edges, the back tires look fine with deep tread but I'm not sure how deep they were originally. I'm thinking about replacing the fronts only but I'm a little concerned...

They just arrived today! Time to go out to the garage and slap them puppies on!

Ok, I sent you an email. THANKS!! Even more so my bad back says thanks!!! :)

Hi Mark, I sent a private message inquiring about your stabilizers for my BX25 a few months ago and didn't get a reply so I thought you simply stopped making them but I'm reading that you are in fact still making them. Maybe I didn't do something right and the message didn't get...

Meh, at the last minute I changed to getting 2" spacers, I'm in some pretty tight quarters and who knows, I might run into a deal on a used 60" MMM.

I just ordered 3" for the rear and leaving the front stock. I am a little concerned about bearing/axle issues with the rear since I really work the tractor hard with woods work and stumps but I only read of 1 person with problems and that was on the front wheels.

Maclean, thanks! Mine is obviously much different but your pictures are a big help in some of my ideas. I've promised myself to do before and after pictures this time.

Did you get the 7200 Jr.? I think I need to bring the lower pins in from 27.5" to around 24" and with HEAVY angle iron and some 3/8 plate to lower those pins about 4", I'll try to mess with pictures today when I get off work but I'm no wizard on these electronic voodoo boxes! (I'm a master at...

skeets, I agree that it would be easier to sell it and get the right one but since a friend gave it to me, I like messing with things and I would only occasionally use it, I'd like to make this work...unless the work to make this work is too much work.
