bx24 hst service question

[harryr6574]

Hi, I want to service my bx24 hst, but the backhoe is installeed and am wondering if anyone had done this by removing left rear wheel?

If you're only talking about changing fluid and filters, the backhoe does not need to be removed. Tight quarters but workable. At least on the BX23D, that's the experience.

I am not a small person (6'1, 220lbs), but I have been under the tractor and it is really a tight fit. I was just wondering if anyone had approached removing the wheel which does not seem to be that big of a job. I may do it just to see.

Or, you could use the outriggers on the backhoe to lift up the right side of the tractor, put a block under the wheel and let 'er rip.

raised mine with the outriggers and loader,, set it down with blocks under the wheels,, lots of room.. also installed wheel weight bolts by outrigger raising one rear wheel at a time, rotated the wheel to get at the holes, pushed in bolts with some sticky grease to keep them in position..
