BH77 Rotating Seat

[beckmurph]

The rotating seat support on my BH77 broke off
Last Saturday while bush hogging.
920 hours on the LX2610.

It appears that the load was riding on the rear of the white bearing instead of being spread around the entire ring.

Please post a pic of that setup. I been wanting a rotating seat on my BH76. Thanks

This will have me looking at my own B2650/BH77 rotating seat mount now.
"seat support on my BH77" meaning the tractor's rotating seat, for the BH77, not "on the bh77"?
"while bush hogging" presumably means the BH was disconnected.


Hate to sound prying, but are you a particularly heavy guy?

200 isn't particularly heavy, IMO. I've been 180-190 through most of my tractor's 1300ish hours.

Looks fixable with a welder, but it seems like pretty thin metal. MIG maybe?

I'm probably missing something here, but how did part of the BH break while running a bush hog?
