The B2650 count down has begun!

Oh, and I wanted to test the traction of those big meaty tires in snow and on a hill. That shocked me the most! The amount of traction it has its beyond anything I could imagine.

I was able to drive right up along the side of the house.

Also, ran to the local Walmart for some Power Service winter additive and saw that the shelf is wiped out of the 911.... They have the summer and the winter mix, but they are cleaned out of the emergency blend.View attachment 535785View attachment 535786

My wife found the same at Walmart last week when it was super cold, no 911. Advanced Auto had it. AA was out yesterday when I got the winter treatment bottle I use but the guy said he ordered 15 cases that would be there in the evening. Guess a lot of other people were cussing too.

My R4s have shocked me with the snow. Absolutely no issues, much better than my previous tractor with R1s in the snow. Granted in the thick mud I already noticed what others said about sliding sideways when steering. I would have never done as much as I have with the driveway this year.

When you attach your 3 point does it pin up quick or do you have to manually bolt it on?

I hear you on videos. I hate editing. I’d rather be sitting on the tractor. I guess some folks have more patience. I can’t stand to hear let alone see myself more than once so the editing drives me insane. Thankfully some of these other folks are good at it as there are a lot of good videos online these days.

It pins on in seconds. You have the 2 pins/clips at the tractor end of the sway bars, the 2 clips at the end of the lower arm shaft (and the 2 spacers), 2 pins/clips at the upper hydraulic.... I'll call it the cast wishbone thing?, And then the pin/clip on the top center link. Total time... After building it all... About 3 minutes on or off. No big deal.

Rock crawler,
When your out admiring that beast would you mind measuring the width of your rear wheels?

Thanks in advance!!

Thank you. I see videos produced so awesome, I know that money are bad compared to most. I don't really know how to do much with that stuff, and honestly... It takes a lot of time to sit down and work on videos. Those folks that do such professional looking videos must have some tricks that I don't know. I try...

Outstanding buddy, awesome job!

60.5" at the sidewalls.

 

[Dan33Klein]

Thank you. So I would be at 57.5 without the spacers.
60 tiller and box blade would barely cover the tracks

I put my 60" Titan box blade on tonight and you can tell looking back that your tires are wider... I should have bought a 72". It's brand new, I bought it a few months ago for my BX25D but never used it before I sold my BX.

 

[Rock Crawler]

I also measured 58.5" outside corner of tread blocks across the back tires. So that would be the track you leave in the dirt, but to physically fit it into a space it's almost exactly the 60.5" at the sidewall that you would need to have space for.

 

[Dan33Klein]

Do you think a 72 box
Blade is to much for a 2650?

Looking good, RC. Not sure if available for your B but if you are wanting to a bunch of 'tearing into earth', you should look into a Piranha Tooth Bar for your bucket. I can't recommend it enough. Best mod I did to my BX.
