Could someone tell me what the differences are between a BX2360 & 2370?

I may be getting a BX2360 and would like to read up on it but can only find a 2370 owners manual online.

Would the 2370 manual be essentially the same as the 2360 manual?

Thanks.

The BX2360 and BX2370 are the same tractor. The BX 2370 is the new model. The BX2360 and BX2370 manual will be the same. The BX2360 changed to a BX2370 in either 2012 or 2013. So any info you find on the BX2360 will apply to the BX2370.

If you get the tractor be sure to check the front axle oil. The BX tractors are known to be delivered new with low oil in the axle. I have a BX2360 and love it. They are a good tractor.

Thank you sir!

This will be a big change from a 149' x 90' lot in town and a small JD LT160 garden tractor to a 4.5 acre lot in the country with this BX! Gonna keep the lil JD and have my 12 year old mow the front with that while I do the rest with the BX. :)

they would be almost the same exact thing. 2360 have analog gauges....2370 have digital gauges.....2360 has a seat without arm rests and 2370 I believe comes with arm rests (BX25D is a 2370 and in 2013 started with arm rests)
2360 might have the brake on the right, and 2370 moved brake to left....might be mistaken on that however.

here is a link to manuals - some are ops and some are wsm

I too think this is correct. I know my '60 is on the right.

Not to harp, but a biggie is the shorter ROPS - I'm 6'4", and it's about to my nose - the '70 won't fit through a 7' OH door unless the ROPS are folded. They shortened the ROPS on the brand new '80 series to fit an OH door.

Makes it easier to put ROPS lights on - don't have to worry about it folding to get inside.

Great info from everyone.
The biggest change I found, was that quality control has went down badly from my BX2360, to my BX2370.
IF I would have noticed how poorly the welds were done on the hinge assemblies on the hood of the BX2370, before I had paid for it, I would have kept my BX2360.
Once I pointed it out to the dealer I bought it from, he agreed the quality was poor, and they said they ordered a replacement for me, but had to send it back, because it was in worse shape than the one I already own.
I,m not sure IF they actually did, or didn,t try to get me a replacement.
Also, because it had sat outside for a while before I purchased it, there were several areas that had small areas of surface rust, that were not on my BX2360.
To some, these little tractors are machinery. For OCD guys like me, that wash and wax it after every mowing, it,s more than that.
Still ticks me off every time I look at my hood, and can see the grinder marks under the nice shiny paint, that were not corrected when the hoods were being built, before they were painted.
If you are going to buy a new BX2370, and are OCD like me, locate where the four hinges are welded under the hood, and check the top side to look for the grinder marks.
Hopefully the quality of the engine and tranny is better.
