first time tractor/BX owner.

Wheel spacers if you are on any kind of slope (Bro-Tek). Piranha tooth bar if you are going to do a lot of digging and definitely a BH dolly (BXpanded). You are going to absolutely love this tractor!!! Now that the days are short I have ordered LED lights so I can still play during the dark winter.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I did order the stabilizer bars. And I just ordered some LED light. The dealer was the one who recommended the 64" blower with all the snow we get here in buffalo and my driveway is 400feet long thats one less pass I would have to make.

Buffalo! Now there's a snowy town. I have seen Buffalo get 20" at once, while at the same time we here in Toronto did not get a single snowflake. All the more amazing because on a clear day you can actually see Buffalo from a tall building on the Toronto waterfront. You are certainly going to use that blower a lot.

Another tip, check your fluid in your front axle, its very common that it is low.

Remember you have poor braking with a load in the bucket and your going down hill, so be in 4wd if so and have a hand of the loader control ready to take the load off the bucket,,,watch lifting when lifting something wheel you are off level, it can lift a front wheel quick as I found out when I got off . I pulled the mat when new, painted the floor and bolts etc, then used acf 50 on the rad ,frame etc, and painted the frame bolts or bare areas.then sprayed lps on the under frame, I put 3m clear tape on the side of the floor to keep the boots from scratching it.and on the contact area between the mat and the floor boards for wear proofing

Lamanted - good stuff - pulling the mat sounds like a good idea - I'm not sure what it looks like under there -what did you paint under it with - kubota orange? I like the clear tape idea too. Thanks
