Both front wheels lock up bx 2670

[dht1964]

I have a new bx 2670 with 5.5 hours on it. I was driving it across the yard in 2 wheel drive. I felt the tractor jurk and slow down. I looked at the front wheels saw no movement. So there I set. It will go back to the dealership next week. Has this happen to anyone?

That I have NOT heard of ...... so the front end was "locked" and not spinning?

Well - at least that will be a dealer fix if it is a real bad "fix"

Please report back what you find out to be the cause

That sounds like a really bad fix

I have a 2670 and mine don't lock up. Although if I drive on the side of a hill leaning over to the left, there is a rubbing grinding noise up front. Coming back across same hill leaning right, smooth as on the level.

Agreed, please report back what the dealer finds! I'm very curious about the problem and the fix....never heard of that!

5.5 hours....someone forget to put oil in the front axle?

That's the engine mounts rubbing/chattering with engine vibration (happens to all of them when leaning left and not right)

To the OP, that's the first I've ever heard of that....someone left an extra nut in the front axle during assembly?

When I hear back from the dealership I will post the findings.
