Istarted planning it about a year ago and started gathering Steel .Iworked on it a couple nights a week a few hours at a time.Built it on the tractor,took it off last may and never touched it til this nov.Dont dare say how many but alot of hours.Im quite satisfied with the results.Ican remove the whole rear wall[10 bolts]and remove the doors if i want to keep iton during the summer.The roof extends over the back to keep me dry running the back hoe.Hard to find one for a bx-23 with all the features such as this,so this is why i did it myself.

Your welcome buddy.I posted the build on another TRACTOR site[because i couldnt get on here]Probably not cool with the boss up stairs to promote that site.Over 100 pages of pics on that thread.

Man, that cab rocks!! I bet you're just praying for snow now. That's when the feeling of satisfaction will really hit...

Man, I really, REALLY have to learn how to weld...

*Just let me have your bx23 with this cab and heater and get yourself a new BX25 and build another cab for it.
This way I could go back and forth between cab and open station with out haveing to install and remove the cab.
If I had a cab and heater I'd be getting some good winter seat time instead of stayin in the house out of the cold.
Oh Well at least I'm saving fuel and hours on the tractors.
