    Resurection From 2014 - BX22 Left to Me

    Even though the BX is not officially my yet, I'll be excersising "Fred" this weekend. I Had to have a rather large and tall pine that the beetles got to cut. I paid a bonded tree cutter to come lay the tree down since it was close to my shop and I'm no lumber jack. "Fred-n-me" are going to do...

    Resurection From 2014 - BX22 Left to Me

    The saga continues..........The judge didnt grant permission to sell last time we went to court. NOW, she has decided to retire December 31st and our case will not go back to court until January 16th to an appointed judge. Prima-dona elected officials sure can muck up everything.

    Where do I fin the hydraulic resevoir to return hydraulic fluid from a post driver?

    I wouldn't worry about returning the oil. If it were me I would check the tractor and just top it off. That way your driver is already full next time you're going to use it .....but this is just me

    Resurection From 2014 - BX22 Left to Me

    Talked with my attorney handling the estate yesterday and he is going to petition the court and request that all property of the estate be set aside as exempt since its probably not worth more than $10,000. He is probably correct in this since later in his life my friend didnt take care of his...

    The last day to file a claim against the estate was Wednesday and by COB Wednesday there were only two claims. Both credit card companies and both less than 2k each. So we will see how it plays out. From what I understand they have to show up in court in order to collect but it really depends on...

    Resurection From 2014 - BX22 Left to Me

    My being able to keep the BX and implements is coming in to question. My friend left some credit card debt and its intirely possible that the probate court will make me sell it all off to cover the debt. I'm hoping that those that filed claims against the estate wont show up for court. We will...

    Mowing

    Well, I guess she took pity on me. She hasnt been doing it long only a few years and still thinks its fun. I firmly believe she will change her mind in due time or when she stirs up a nest of those Big Black Ground Dwelling Bumblers that put Pop-Knots on ya when they hit ya or Yellow...

    Mowing

    If I had it to do over, the only thing I would do different from my B7300 is get something with power steering. Otherwise.....I'm satisfied. The tractor has 1993 hours on it and has done nothing but mow our sparsley wooded 22 acres since it was bought new in 1999. Have a BX22 with hoe and FEL...

    Need Help: ZD28 Temperature Fluctuating/Red Lining at Start Up

    Brian, Kuboman is 100% correct.....if I were you I'd chase the wires to the temp sensor down. If no short is found.....replace the sensor....it cant be that expensive. You've spent more time, effort and headache boiling thermostats and such than what you'll spend on a temp sensor. REPLACE THE...

    D902 engine problem?

    I've got a BX22 with the dame engine that has done what you describe a number of different times. Every time it was fuel related typically water in the fuel. I was using fuel from an old farm tank. I drained the tractors fuel tank completely, changed all filters and now only use store bought...

    I'll be joining the True BX users club. Both HST shaft boots busted and mostly gone and HST fan missing all its blades. I'll be doing the work myself. Any words of wisdom and pointers will be appreciated. I haven't got a clue how long they've been missing either.......Oh well....I'm still in...

    Resurection From 2014 - BX22 Left to Me

    There are folks that are friends like the people you work with. Then there are the 4 or 5 true friends, the ones you know you can call on at any time. Then there are those that become a part of your life. Jim and his wife Becky had become a part of my life and I like to think I was that way to...

    I've known him 40+ years and were neighbors for 15 years. I worked for him and his family when I was in high school when they farmed cotton, soybeans and he ran the family dairy farm. 100+ head holstein cows. We also grew corn and milo for silage for the dairy herd. He left farming and went to...

    Resurection From 2014 - BX22 Left to Me

    My elderly next door neighbor passed away several months ago. I was contacted by the executor of his estate letting me know he had left his BX22 and all attachments to me. Not only was I stunned, I didnt know quite what to say. At any rate, here are a few pics of the tractor and the implements.

    Auxilary HST Cooler for BX Series

    With the ease of which the plastic HST cooling fans get broken and the H3LL you have to hug to replace them, I'm wondering if a transmission cooler placed in front of the radiator would work. Is it even possible to plumb one up? Would it cool the fluid like it should? Would it allow enough fluid...
