Ahh yes yes....


I have spent some time here, then I bought the Squatch and I have been
learning all about it, yep both sits are good!

More Goodies...

The following 2 tools are a MUST HAVE (IMO) if you own a BX25.

The flare nuts on the hoses at the BH Valve Block are REALLY close together. I looked at every tool known to man and in the end the most expensive Snap On tools worked. Don't waste your time looking at others, I did, just buy these tools. Trust me...


Regarding the BX25 and the leaks at the BH Hydraulic Valve Block I have been having issues with THE SNAP ON TOOLS WORK. !!! I was able to get that flare nut to tighten easily a tad and no leaks yet. Next time I use it will be the real test but initial start-up and test showed no leaks.

CROWFOOT, OFFSET 3/8 Drive, 11/16 , 12 Point (AN850115B)

And the SOCKET, FLARE NUT, 11/16 6-POINT,3/8 Drive (FRX221)

Here is a picture showing both tools on the offending flare nuts! Between these two tools I do believe A man can fix most of, if not all hoses in this area w/o taking each hose off from one end as the factory suggests.

This is a great tip. I found both on the snap on website for $84 total. I believe the correct part # is AN850111B. I found but on ebay for less than $40. Thanks.

Yes altoonapillarrock , it took some work to figure
that out. The dealer insisted each and every hose
left or right of the offending loose nut had to be removed
to do the repair, when I told them about this tool they
never replied... Makes ya wonder.
