    BX tractor bracket stopper

    There's a notch on the side of the bracket that you hook on the pin/bolt there so the shaft stays erect whle you work on whatever it is you're doing.

    BX23S Backhoe wood splitter mod

    I know I know, just go buy a splitter, but that's no fun. Does anyone think the power of a BX 23S backhoe is strong enough to use as a log splitter? I've seen a few designs and videos of other tractors, thinking of making one myself. :geek: Paul

    I'm likely a scam artist!

    OP: You're that "good guy" on my gun forum who's actually trustworthy, but you don't have a million posts or your profile isn't filled out so no one trusts you to do business with you! ;):geek:

    Military aircrews and ground crews cancer rates - not good!

    TLDW but, I'm 51 so while I was in college desert storm broke out. I now have a lot of friends my age that were there, most all suffer from ailments they're sure came from being over there. Terrible. :cry::mad:

    Type of trailer?

    Ive got a 16 foot Eq trailer. Moves my BX23S with backhoe or whatever else I put on the back nicely. Would not want any longer or shorter. JMHO YMMV

    BXPanded Ripper + Quick change adapter

    Welp. I'm going to find out sooner rather than later if it's a pain, the ripper is already on it's way. BXP must have had them in stock ready to ship.

    BX23s Canopy. Which one?

    Honest to Goodness, I didn't even think they actually made canopies for our tractors, I thought EVERYONE use golf cart tops, this is the first I'm hearing of actual purpose-built canopies. :geek::geek:

    BXPanded Ripper + Quick change adapter

    2020 BX 23S I just ordered the BXpanded root ripper to take care of some stumps and roots in my backyard, as my bucket was just not cutting it, literally and figuratively. Did I make a mistake not ordering the quick change adapter to go back to my bucket when needed? Knowing me I will want to be...

    Trespass

    1) I'm surprised the Sheriff said you could not press charges for trespass. I thought if it was your property, you can trespass anyone you want. 2) I live Massachusetts (aka Liberal sh!thole). Sadly, I can count a few different instances there in your story where the trespasser would be...

    MaxLine RapidAir Garage Air Line Kits

    I have a kit in my garage going on 13 years now. Still working great. A few of the Quick attach bungs didn't work out of the box, replaced them. My only advice would be for a clean install, run a laser line to get the lines straight, get the hose tight and use mutiple clamps so it stays...

    Went over to the red side.

    I switched 8-10 years ago and it has been hit or miss ever since, mostly good. All batteries still functioning, But I'm a shadetree and not a really real working guy. 3/8 circ = Works but not powerful 3/8 ratchet = very weak, worthless almost 12V screwdriver = awesome, little sucker will rip...

    BX New(?) hydraulic leak spot to watch

    2020 BX 23S, 90 hours, babied. I noticed a small puddle after plowing last night, poked around and saw wetness under the quick coupler. If you look at this pic you will notice the blue and yellow lines that come up into the manifold have worked their way loose, the washers there can be spun...

    Grapple Dos and Don'ts

    I've done more superficial and cosmetic damage using my grapple for 2 hours than I have done in all the other 92 hours of use. Again, that said, I will reiterate, the grapple is the most fun on your tractor that you can have with your pants on. YMMV.

    Pros and cons of snow removal options

    Agree. I was going to put in my 2 cents but there's like a whole dollar there to chew on. For me: Deeper snow I use the blower. I plowed today for the first time and yea, it's quicker than the blower. Heavy slush and light accumulations is really nice to have the plow. Both my plow and blower...

    Grapple /Third function not working

    Update: Solved. OP is an idiot. I checked wires at the end where the couplers are, didn't check the middle where it disconnects for when I take the bucket off. Carry on, nothing to see here. 😳:censored:🤪
