    Shorten joystick throw

    New tractor owner here, so take my comments with a grain of salt.....please.....but I saw a youtube video the other day of a guy on an old-ish, BX-something, who had cut down his joystick probably in half ! I liked it. I don't know if I'd go that short (on a BX) but if I had what you had with...

    MMM and SNOWBLOWER installed at same time? (BX2380)

    No, I don't want to *USE* both at the same time....my question is just for front ballast or transport purposes. BX2380---48" front blower w/ K-connect, 54" MMM, no loader I was wanting to move my snowblower to another location y'day and noticed I can "almost" get it mounted but the little...

    Wanted, manual for Snowblower BX2830

    Trailering accident - Any idea what happened here?

    It's started with one guy telling another guy "he couldn't pop-a-wheelie with a tractor on a trailer." The response was "here, hold my beer" This is the result.

    Wrench and socket sizes?

    Still waiting on my BX2380 delivery....any day now....and I am getting 'ancy'. While I wait, youtube videos are my friend. I've watched quite a few by "GP Outdoors"....I am sure many of you have seen his videos. I don't know if he was referring to his B2601 or his newer LX33-something, but he...

    Modifying seat on a BX ?

    Thanks Dale. I've ordered the BX2380 with turf tires. Who knows....maybe it won't be too bad. I am still waiting on delivery. My land (2.2ac) is pretty flat in most areas I mow and I am sure I could run them 2 or 3psi lower than spec to help cushion the blow to my kidney's. I also have an...

    Plagued by inventory

    Ordered a BX2380 about a month ago with blower, mower and rear blade. *SHOULD* have it all together by the end of the week---maybe ! (did I just jinx myself?) BX2680's and BX1880's are very very thin on the ground here. I've seen one in my area (100m circle), but I wanted a '2380...

    Modifying seat on a BX ?

    OK, so what I'm hearing is nobody (reading this) has done it. Maybe a good opportunity to make this a business for myself and become a billionaire ~! (LOL, J/K) Just got an email from Kubota 10mins ago. My tractor COULD be in as early as next weekend...fingers crossed. Thanks fellas.

    Modifying seat on a BX ?

    I may...if it comes to that. I like to build stuff, but don't necessarily like to reinvent the wheel, hence my original question: Has anyone put an air bladder or shock absorber(s) under the seat in a Bx? Tnx

    Modifying seat on a BX ?

    Interesting. I'll consider this my back up plan. Shipping to Canada will be expensive, but not $1200 expensive like a new seat. Thanks

    Modifying seat on a BX ?

    I think it's only my 2nd post here and I have not yet rec'd my BX2380....waiting on a couple implements to complete the deal....snowblower, mower and rear scraper blade. I didn't buy the loader yet. Ran out of nickels. Maybe next year. Anyways....I mow 2 acres of old farm field (ie: not a...

    Do I buy a BX1880 or BX2380?

    Hi--My first post here. I'm in central NB, so perhaps a little more snow at times than Ottawa. I have a Kubota 3cyl TG1860 (diesel) w/ 54" deck for mowing 2 acres and a *BIG* MTD walk-behind 13hp/45" cut for snowblowing. I have a BX2380 on order (waiting for implements, mower, blower...
