Thanks. I am going to the dealer Saturday and will let you know what they say.

While mowing this weekend with my BX1880 I noticed the front right guide wheel was a bit canted. Upon further inspection I noticed that the weld holding the support tube to the bracket had failed. Will KTAC cover something like this? Will they try and re-weld it or just replace the deck? I...

I don't either, just a bench grinder and some good instruction.

Agree with the staring small then stepping up. Learned how to drill holes from my dad a master machinist for 40+ years. Another important skill is how to sharpen them properly when you do bugger them up. Thanks Dad.

That is damn cool. Did you know it was in the lake or stumbled upon it?

Nice. I have the 1880 and still find ways for it to make my life easier. Don't be afraid to get it dirty and enjoy the new toy.

Man, that looks much easier to replace than laying under the thing getting a diesel shower.

I saw those on Ebay and Amazon. They are on my list of items I need to add. The turnbuckles are a pain.

One thing to keep in mind is make sure you either remove the step or size it so it clears the MMM when mounted.

have about 200 hours on mine and its 2+ years old (august 2020). I use it mostly for mowing, but also landscaping duties, an expensive wheel barrow and pasture maintenance.

I had a similar experience when I did my BX's first service. Now I take the long way around and make sure I am low in diesel beforehand and then just drain the tank while I am working on other parts of the tractor. it takes longer, but in the end I don't get covered in diesel. I do like the...
