I’ll take a look this evening. I’m hoping for just friction...but as I’ve come to learn, hope alone is never a great strategy. Thanks!

Oh, sorry, didn't realize - I'm referring to a BX1860 from 2012.

Hi- Anyone know if the rubber brake, forward, and reverse pads are easily removed on the BX? Are they glued on or just friction fit over something? Thanks!

Hi- Is there any way of putting on new hydraulic line dust caps without disassembling the hydraulic couplers entirely? A couple of mine are about to break off and I don't really know how to get the new plastic caps on...kind of looks like the coupler would need to be pulled apart to do this...

Awesome - thanks for confirming that.

Price drop to $35, shipped.

I've been following this thread for a couple of days now and I have to say, I feel for you. What a disappointing experience - one that should have been fun and exciting seems to have turned into a real pain. I watched your video and I have to say that the plastics on the tractor in that video...

Hmm, not sure on that. It’s possible as the BXs seem to share many of the same parts. Does the cluster look the same between the 1850 and 1860?

Hi- Selling the instrument cluster from my 2012 BX1860. Works as it should - recently upgraded to a newer style cluster. Asking $35, shipped. Please PM me if interested. Thanks!

Yea, I was thinking of doing that. Just need to order the parts. The local dealer is kind of hit or miss in terms of parts for older model BX’s. I think they stock if the part is compatible with newer tractors.

Hi- I noticed yesterday that I had a very small amount of coolant leaking out of the upper water house, where it goes into the engine (at the thermostat?). I wiped up the coolant, tightened the clamp a bit, and let it sit overnight. I checked this morning and no leak. When I fired the...

While this a completely doable job, know that there just isn’t much room to work on this little beast. The hardest part for me was getting the new belt to ride up over the alternator pulley. After about 45 minutes of trying to turn the engine over while applying pressure to the belt at the...

Awesome, thanks for the feedback. It's good to know there are other 1860 owners out there - so far, I'm loving this tractor. Getting ready to change the belt - not sure that it needs it, but since I'm not the original owner, I'd like to know that it has been done.

New instrument cluster is in! Overall very easy; hardest part was getting the battery out of the compartment. It***8217;s a tight fit and I didn***8217;t follow the instructions to the letter as they called for grinding about 3mm off of the console. The result of not doing this is that the...

I tried that already, and while it probably would work well, the 1860 just isn't set-up to have one neatly installed. The lower radiator hose is super short and the one spot you can install it, when installed, rubs up against the oil filter and is basically in the way should you ever want to...

Question: Does the instrument cluster just pop out? I was looking at the instructions that will come with the replacement kit and it starts talking about removing the steering wheel, the throttle lever, etc. This seems like overkill to replace the panel...assuming it pops out of the dash.

Where would the magnetic heater go? On the oil pan? How long would you leave it plugged in? Thanks!

Ordered the appropriate kit for my BX1860 today. With any luck, it’ll be here before the weekend! Thanks for the help on this.

Do you know if K2731-99000 is both the instrument cluster and adapter or is it just the adapter? I’m thinking it’s both, but not 100% clear to me.

I think I found the part - K2771-99000. Says it will fit the BX2360; I have a BX1860. As far as I know the 1860 and 2360 instrument clusters are the same. If that is the case , would this kit fit the 1860? Thanks!
