Hi. I am looking to get a small tractor to help with landscaping projects around the house and small tasks on the farm. I do have a larger tractor for heavier tasks. In the new tractor, I will order a BH and considering a grapple for moving brush.
Have looked at the B2650 and the BX23S. I see some pro's and con's to each. One thing that bothered me about the B2650 is the rear axle design. I see a central differential / housing with a relatively long unsupported axle out to each wheel. I am worried about the torque load on the differential casting and those long axles. Especially if it is carrying a BH most of the time. The BX has a axle where the exposed axles are very short. Making me think it maybe more robust to the BH weight.
Any experience with the B2650 design? Any real concerns about that failing?
Any other thoughts about those 2 tractors?
Thanks.
