    Lug nut reminder

    Quick story, I recently bought a brand new BX1880, it has 11.2 hours on it. At 11 hours, the front left wheel lost 3 out of the 4 lug nuts and ruined the wheel. The dealership ordered me a new wheel, new lug nuts, and changed my tire for me. I got the torque specs from the dealer and grabbed my...

    New BX 1880 Owner

    Well that's exactly why I the bought the 1880, I just really needed to upgrade my mower and maybe do a few chores around the property. So far, it has met all my expectations, and I very much enjoy the machine. I'll use it mainly for mowing in summer, and snow removal in the winter. I saw no need...

    I didn't take anything personal! I have just been waiting for my new from wheel to come in, my lug nuts all came loose with 11 hours on the tractor and ruined my wheel. They did order me another wheel, changed my tire for me, and provided new lug nuts. Other than that, the tractor has been...

    I just ordered an 800lb ballast box, and went with the Pat's (Orange of course) quick attach. I'll likely not change out very much plus it seems to be a pretty highly rated system. You are right though, it definitely needs some counter weight or it feels very loose! Just waiting on my weight box...

    QH05 or QH15 Quick Hitch For BX 1880 ?

    I think I am going to go the route of the quick hitch, but I was wondering what everyone uses/prefers specifically for the BX 1880? Is the QH05 going to be good? Or should I invest in the QH15? Thoughts?

    This is my first "tractor", I don't plan on running it more than 2 hours a week, so I couldn't justify the larger tractor now. This is really to get my feet wet with a good machine and see what it can do, and see what I want to do. It's a house with a some land, not a farm. I will likely haul a...

    Jeez guys, sorry I bought the wrong tractor...I must not have done any research. I sure am glad I stumbled into here so I could get flamed for buying something so undersized and stupid! I sure wish now I had spent an extra $10K for something I may use once a year. No way I could go rent that...
