    BX25 Steering Wheel Swap?

    I've been wanting a higher steering wheel on my BX25. Does anyone know if one of the taller wheels like on the BX25D will fit the BX25? Thanks.

    BX25 Suspension Seat

    I've had back issues for 50 of my 72 years so the lack of suspension on the BX25 is an occasional problem. This year already I've been down 4 times so I thought it was time for some suspension. A little searching led me to a mechanical suspension seat which seems to have been sold by a number...

    BX25 Starting Issue

    I got the BX new in 2010 and it has about 650 hr. on it. When it was new, and for years after, it would start cold with a 10 second or less glow plug warm up. It would fire right off. For the last few years it has been taking a longer and longer glow plug warm up to start and even then it...

    Bonehead electrical move

    I was changing batteries on my BX25 and while connecting the new battery I got the leads crossed. I had taped a smaller wire to the negative lead with red electrical tape. You shouldn't do that. Anyway, I heard an electrical spark come from the engine area and now it is dead. I checked all...

    Someone has to do it

    Saw this on North Myrtle Beach this morning. Poor guy. Another day of running up and down the beach.

    BX25 seat replacement

    I'm interested in replacing my BX25 seat with a seat that has an adjustable back. Has anyone found one that they are happy with? I would consider OEM or third party. Thanks for looking. Dean

    Plow and snowblower on a BX quick hitch?

    I have a BX25 with a BX2750D snow blower on it. I'm entertaining the idea of getting a blade also, either the BX2763A or the TG2754. It appears that you could go back and forth between the blower and the blade quickly. Does anyone know if this is the case or is the PTO shaft on the quick...

    Question on using the Search option

    Does anyone know how to search for posts using 2 search terms and which the posts will contain both of those search terms? For instance, how do I search for posts which have both of the words "orange" and "green" in them?

    Linear actuator in place of hydraulic ram?

    I'm curious to know if anyone has used a linear actuator in the place of a hydraulic ram for a top link or bucket grapple. It seems to me that it would be easier than adding the hydraulics. Since you can get a 1000 lb. rated actuator, I wouldn't think lack of force an issue. I was thinking...

    Moving amber flashers on BX25

    I do quite a bit of dirt road maintenance (1.1 mile long) with my BX and I've had a couple of close calls with vehicles even though the posted speed is 20 and I have all my lights on, day or night. I purchased a service light but it was a disappointment. The emergency flashers on the BX are...

    Difficulty Greasing BX25 Swing Frame Pins

    I have a hard time greasing the swing frame pins and can only do it while actually swinging side to side. I have pulled the zerks and they work fine and have cleaned out the cavities. I'm now thinking that the fits might be so tight that grease has a hard time penetrating. I have no problems...

    BX Block heater question

    I've got a BX25 with a block heater and a guy at the dealer where I bought it said I shouldn't leave it plugged in more than 1/2 hour at a time. I believe his reasoning was that it would cook the oil. Well, I haven't used it but would like to so that the block would be warm when it starts. It...

    What is the hole for in my BB?

    I'm probably going to feel stupid when I find out, but I need to ask - There is about a one inch square hole in the back top edge of the BB and I have yet to figure out its purpose. Would someone enlighten me? Thanks. Dean

    BX25 snowblower counterweight

    Last winter, my first with this tractor and BX2750D snowblower, I used a 400 lb ballast box and it seems that a lot of the time I had trouble steering in the float position, especially in deep snow. Running in 4WD helped some but it was still a problem. I thought the weight would help with...

    Which linear actuator for BX2750D

    I'm planning to install a linear actuator on my snow blower chute deflector and it looks like a 4" stroke will work but was wondering what "load capacity" I should use. I hate "overkill" when building things even though I've been guilty of it all my life so I'm looking for the lowest rating...

    BX25 Ballast Box Height

    I have a new BX25 with an OEM ballast box which I will be installing for the winter. I'm thinking the bottom of the box might be a good place for a trailer hitch. Does anyone know, or would take a guess how far off the ground the box bottom would be at maximum height? Any comments on the idea...
