    Looking for new John Deere Tractor with 4 Wheel Steerings, Mower, Snowblower + Loader

    So an injury has forced me to decide that I can't snowblow with my small machine any longer and I decided that I would buy one machine to do all the things I need: Mow 1.5 acres Loader for lifting things for me, and moving dirt/mulch around Snowblower for about 800 feet driveway I previously...

    Seat is too far back from wheel for me BX24

    I love my BX, in fact I pretty much love just about everything....Except when I mow I just am too far from the seat so I can lean back and be really comfortable. It is adjusted all the way up, and im 5'10 but 30" leg so maybe thats the issue or my arms are too short :) Not really sure, but is...

    Do you have a grass bagger and 54" Deck, Please help

    I have a RCK54P23BX deck and bought a used GCK60-23BX Bagger. I also got from fellow member keyman (thank you) what I believe is the right boot for a 54" deck, but it seems too large to me, and I can not find a picture of the boot on the deck. The only photos show a deck with a metal...

    Pics of installed 54" boot for MMM/Bagger

    Thanks to Keyman from TBN! I was able to swap my 60" boot kit for a 54" but the bad part is that I really can't seem to figure out how it mounts. Does anyone have a picture from a manual or good photos of how the bracket or brackets mounts the boot kit to the deck? Do I have to remove the...

    Anyone have a manual for the BX Bagger?

    I bought this used today and unortunately it didnt come with a manual, does anyone have a pdf of the manual or link to it? Also when I bought it I didn't think that the intake is different perhaps for a 54" vs a 60", is this the case? thank you chris

    BX to dig a swimming pool?

    Ok I am serious, I am interested in putting in a smaller swimming pool and after watching several videos I was surprised to see how many pools were put in with a bucket the size of the BX. Time is less of an issue so I realize it will take longer but my thought is that if i had a ramp to get...

    How are you storing your 2750 snoblower, maybe a cleaver idea?

    I am really tight on storage for implements and currently have the blower on its side upright and need something a bit more stable. I was thinking about welding on some tubing and in storage mode sliding wheels with very far reach for stability, and then I can move it around but am hoping you...

    Lifting with backhoe, chains, best way? BX24

    I am guessing there may be many ways to do this, but tonight I had to lift a 450# container and I basically used chains rates for well over this with tow hooks. I just clipped them on the backhoe bucket and gently lifted and it seemed to work ok. Is there a smart way to do this, or things...

    Ball Hitch on bottom of BX24?

    I noticed without my BH on that there is a hole on the bottom which seems to fit a ball for a trailer just right. Is this OK to do? I haven't tried to put my BH back on but am concerned it will interfere?

    Kubota Grass Bagger worth it?

    I am looking at adding a bagger for fall use. I actually like the mowing with the fine cut 54" deck without bagging, though I cut pretty often and the results look great to me. But when the fall comes heavy debris and leaves will need something more. Does anyone here own the bagger and does...
