    PTO Oil Seal Blow-Outs!

    I had a 1994 White GT-1855 with an 18HP Briggs Vanguard engine and the rear seal kept popping out. Talked to a local guy and he said if a new seal doesn't fix it, put a bead of silicon around it and it will hold it in place. That was over 6 years ago I believe until I traded it in on a 1025r...

    Green Vs Orange

    Yea, I have a 2018 1025r and been messing around simply in almost idle and the hydraulics work fine. I noticed that with the BX23S you had to be up in RPMs in order for hydraulics to work. But not a big deal to me. Will most likely have the RPMs up normally anyway so not big deal. To me...

    Green Vs Orange

    I've used an old White GT-1855 for most of my life that we got in 1994. I moved away for college in 1999 and in 2012 my parents got a Bad Boy Zero Turn to mow the 3 acres that cut the time in half to about 2 hrs instead of 4. Over those years after I left my brother and his wife and kids used...

    Pallet Forks

    Titan are usually 260lbs and up. Their frames seem to be light, but the forks are very heavy for sub-compacts. For the BX23S and JD 1025r that is a little heavy and better options out there. Probably wouldn't notice on something else heavier though. Artillian prices are crazy and over $1100.

    tire down

    I have a White GT-1855 and when I did it I used the orange hand pump at Harbor Freight and got the valve stem to the top, took the cap off, took the valve core out and then filled the tire 75% full, put the valve core back in and put air in it. I put a cable tie on the end to keep it on the...

    When are the 2019 models released?

    "No significant changes to the BXs". Know of any smaller issues being fixed or anything on the BX23S? I know the BX23S was having issues with leaking from the hydraulics on the new loader single connector at times. Has that been fixed? Any other issues fixed? Been looking for a tractor and...

    Axle capacity numbers

    Those sound correct for the BX23S. I have been comparing it and the JD 1025r. Not sure if it really matters if it can't lift it. Both machines have issues lifting heavy objects it seems, the axle capacities are less on JD. I have seen a lot of video of it lifting very heavy things like...

    Prices for tractors going up due to steel costs

    Will be bad now, but manufacturing has to come back to America and Trump is trying to do that! Best thing that happened was him getting elected! If we get fair trade then it will be better for all.

    John Deere Pricing

    I've been driving myself crazy over the past 2 weeks trying to decide between JD and Kubota. Specifically looking at 1025r and bx23s. Here is what I pulled in comparison between the two. Still not sure what to do. Getting pricing at about the same with JD always being cheaper. If you are...
