    Need help identifying a part

    Maybe your truck tire flipped it up and that's where it landed or it bounced of the road from another car. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Seepage under front axel

    My BX25 was doing that at both sides where it pivots for turning. I took it apart and cleaned everything up and switched from the factory hydraulic oil to gear oil. No signs of leaks. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Keep backhoe boom centered while traveling

    Just a safety reminder. I rotated my BX25 backhoe boom to one side to get into a tight spot while using the loader. I then needed to go into my back yard. The path getting there has a slight side slope, normally is not an issue. This time, I forgot to pivot the backhoe back to the center and...

    Diving/Snorkel RX Mask?

    I use glue-in lenses from Aqua-Optics Trident but they are for reading my dive computer and they help to see my camera screen. Work great for that.

    I got to close to the pond.

    could have been much worse, you are ok and the tires are below the seat.

    Newer floor mat for "older" BX25

    I would put the new mat on the pan the way it is. I don't think "do it yourself" bed liner will make a difference. Reducing the openings with some kind of tape may help keep it some dirt out.

    how much does it cost to Foam fill a tire? and is it worth it?

    Like what NIW said, you will get a very rough ride and most likely will NOT like it. The tires will loose the flex and you will feel every little bump.

    Poor Man's Debris Forks

    I made mine from some angle and flat bar. I have really abused it surprised how well it holds up. You mentioned you didn't have a way to build yourself but maybe find a local fab shop? Something like this wouldn't take very long.

    GR2120 throttle

    I tightened my Dads using the nylock and with just a few times using the throttle, it was loose again. The problem we had was that the nut was not turning with the lever but the bolt was. Maybe his just had a faulty nylock nut.

    GR2120 throttle

    I just fixed my Dads that had this problem. I tightened the nut at the pivot point under the dash but it wouldn't stay tight. I think the nylock nut wasn't holding any more. So I took if off and used 2 regular nuts and jammed them together. That worked much better.

    First post, pulled the trigger on a BX25D

    Nice! With some time, the controls will become natural and you won't even think about it. Enjoy your new toy / tool.

    My BX is too fragile

    Can you post some pictures of the area that you are clearing? I guess I've been lucky and have not taken out my fan. I did rip the front u-joint boot and it started flapping down there and broke my tach wires. Further inspection revealed the rear boot on the drive shaft had a hole in it also...

    These dang TALL rops!

    With the seat turned around to use the backhoe, I think the ROPS needs to be that high. My garage door is only a couple inches lower than the ROPS and wish I didn't have to fold it each time. I considered lowering it but again, with the backhoe, I'm leaving it as is.
