Those Darn Doors, Part 1 Just like the window frames, the door frames were built using the cab frame as a template. Hinges spacing their reveal and 1/4" stock spacing the remaining 3 sides. Unlike the windows however, these required them to be built in 2 steps, 1 for each plane. The lower...

Thanks for the kind words. And, thank you for your angle iron chain hook idea that I borrowed. They work great!

OP, My minister of sex & finance absolutely loves our BX for mowing to the point she gets more than a little upset if I don't let her help. She runs the BX while I zip around on the zero turn. Her help has cut our mowing time in half. Regards.

Window Time: Both front and rear windows are operational. I couldn't come up with a slick and inexpensive way to provide a sliding window in the doors like a Curtis Cab so to provide a little ventilation during late fall or early spring use while this is still installed, I went ahead and opted...

Cab Frame The remainder of the frame was fit and tack welded together on the tractor. First thing was to establish the location for the apex of the front (intersection of the windshield and lower portions by the loader arms). I didn't want to have to remove the cab to raise the hood. This was...

Mounts and Rear Assembly: Knowing that curved sections was out (I don't have a tubing roller nor wanted to fork out $ for curved glass) I built everything using simple planes. The original plan for the lower rear portion was to leave the factory hazard lights in place and utilize the 4 small...

The Beginning: I hadn't originally planned to install a front wiper. My plan was to angle the windshield forward like some of the older IH cabs. Since I wanted to have good visibility and knew Lexan or Plexiglass would eventually become frosted and scratched over time, I bit the bullet and...

RCW, we could swap stories sometime. Mine was a CJ5 during my stay at Ohio State. Nojacket, those are cheapo Amazon golf cart mirrors. They're bolted into the square tubing door frame. I have less than 2 hours run time since I installed the cab last month. So far, no trouble with them...

Thanks and stay warm up there. Used to drive a soft top Jeep many years ago. I remembered how bad the plastic windows would look after a couple years is the reason I went hard cab & glass. Regards

Not really sure where to start...so, here goes. Bought my BX2370 about 3 years ago and have enjoyed everything about it except one thing: you freeze your backside off while plowing snow. I don't recall it being this cold when we plowed snow as kids 40 some years ago. So, silly me, I think I'll...

Backriver, Other than glazing windows, yes, I've installed glass once. Not really that difficult but requires a lot of patience. If you chose to tackle it yourself you only need a couple inexpensive tools (plastic push stick and gasket lock tool ~$20 total from Amazon)or, can improvise with...

Hello, Long time lurker, first time member. Not new to tractors but, purchased my BX2370-1 about 3 years ago, don't know how I got along without this little beast before. Merry Christmas all, Ping!
