I need help everyone.

If worse comes to worse and the tractor won't start be prepared with two come-a-longs. Pick the loader up by attaching one to the bucket and the other end to the ROPS and raise it a few inches. Other come-a-long use to drag the tractor onto the trailer.
That's actually where I got the name from! It's just my email address beavis991@.....net so that tells you how old I am lol! 991 was the local radio station here around Washington DC 99.1WHFS in the 90's....
Thanks, Sounds like a plan, I know he has a couple come a longs up there and his trailer has a battery winch on the front of it to pull cars up on to it also. I ordered a set of car tie downs because it looks like whoever stole the car lift took all the heavy duty tie downs also...
UPDATE
Thanks everyone! Turns out it is a BX2370! It has 250 hours. Dad had disconnected the positive battery cable and once I hooked that up and used the key you guys told me about she fired right up! We put the chain saw in the bucket and cleared the driveway of the fallen trees. Was able to get the trailer hooked to my Tahoe and got her home to our house!
I have since ordered two cellular trail cams and changed the lock on the main gate. When we take the trailer back up I'll set the trail cams up. They have 360 rotation and zoom with solar panels so if we see anyone on the property from here on out we can call the sheriff and have them respond and hopefully arrest them for trespassing.
We are just really happy the tractor was still there and we were able to get it back to our house though. Thanks again for your guys help!
One question though, how do you lower the mower deck to mow? I can engage the blades but can't figure out how to lower it from its "travel" height? Like how do I get it to cut at say 3 inches? I know there is the knob between my legs that sets the height but how do I get the deck to go to that height?

You can go to this website and download the Owners and WSM (workshop manual) manuals in pdf format.....
I do not have the same BX but perhaps this will be helpful. On the side to the right of the seat, there should be a handle that slides forward/backward. It will be in the area of the speed selector. That will raise/lower the MMM and the rear PTO arms, if you have them. Once you set the height with the knob you have found, push the handle downward and the mower will lower to the selected height. When you want to lift the mower, pull the handle back.
