    BX2370 Claw? - Custom Implement 2

    The smaller BXs just don't have the weight / hydraulic down force in any 3-point hitch mounted implement I know of to dig out rocks / stumps / buried pipe / etc. My property is very rocky and box blade tines do very little (I didn't spend the money for a BX backhoe version for this reason -...

    BX2370 Push Boom? - Custom Implement 1

    Don't know what else to call it. We are dumping our non-burnable plant compost from the garden / yard down a small hill in the back every year. This amounts to a land fill (yes we have other compost - this is getting rid of the excess). The problem is this piles up and pushing the latest...

    When is Hose Replacement on BX Really Necessary?

    _Not_ hydraulic hoses. i am getting ready for my 200 hour service and I see half a dozen different hoses from radiator to fuel line to power steering line to various air hoses / lines should all be replaced at 2 year intervals (I am at 6 years). Ok you say SIX years. but none of these hoses...

    Rake  Best Attachemnt for Raking Leaves BX2370

    The first shot at this is a Landscape Rake: LandPride or ETS run $600 - $800 even for the 48" width I will be limited to. I am willing to spend the money but wonder if that is the best approach or overkill. There are two jobs: one is raking then moving to a burn / mulch pile the other is...

    Outside Storage

    My fairly new 2 year old BX2370 is finally getting kicked out of the garage. Even though I am not next to the ocean and have mild winters (6" snow rarely ~2000 ft in the Sierras) I am concerned about bare hydraulic rods and ball joints etc getting rusty. i know tractors tolerate this. i see...

    3-Point Hitch  Ripper Claw Suggestions?

    Being property owners we all have these - piles of stuff be it rocks or pipe or whatever. Whoever put it there at some point we may want to clean it up. I don't want to do this by hand at my age with a pick and bar. The BX is pretty small though and experience with gravity weight alone on the...

    Loader  Simple BX Bucket Extension for Light Material

    Its a axiom of tractor ownership that whatever you think is big enough is too small. The BX bucket is like this - its only 3-4 wheelbarrows. Moving something light like leaves one bucket at a time is just not tolerable if you have many leaves. So I made this very simple plywood bucket...

    Loader  Cannot connect Loader hydraulic fittings

    This is embarrassing. I have had these lines and the loader on and off many many times. Not one of the four lines will snap into place. The collar will not slide down over the balls to lock the snap connector into place. This has never been a problem and everything usually just snaps right...

    Remvoing Lower 3-point Hitch Arms on the BX

    How do you do it? Nothing in the manual. I see how to take the cover plate off that the side to side adjusters attach to. But that just uncovers the pin the two lower arms pivot on. And it seems that axle / pin is trapped between the frame on each side. Am I missing something? Thanks in...

    BX Transmission Filter Change

    My first 50 hour maintenance is due on my 2015 BX2370. The owner's manual says engine oil, oil filter, and transmission filter. Easy enough. The manual also says to check fluids after the filter change and top off if needed. Makes since. I go to the dealer to get my fluids and filters and...

    Hitch & Small Dump Trailer for BX

    Getting close to the second season with my BX 2370 and 50 hours I find I need all sorts of attachments and add-ons. I have the piranha tooth bar and belly armor already (wife's Christmas presents:)). The bucket really is not that huge and to haul stuff around (firewood cut on the place is a...

    Mowing  MMM Dolley

    I swear I saw in a recent thread (on building a shed for the tractor) a photo of someone's MMM deck up on its front or back edge on wheels so it can easily be rolled around the garage. This sure would be handy. The MMM is not that light and doesn't appear to have a convenient method to stand...

    Tires  Wheel Spacers and weights for a new BX2370

    Greetings All- Very informative and courteous bunch of forums. This is my first post. I've been lurking and reading quite awhile now. I live with my family in North San Juan, CA, close to Grass Valley in Nevada County on ~3 acres. I'm going to bite the bullet and get a new BX2370 shortly...
