I lost the front wheel drive on my BX1800. Dealer pickup up the tractor. Turns out the pin that holds the front U-joint to the shaft sheered off and the U-joint fell off. Couple of days after the tractor came home I found the U-joint amongs the pine needles I was raking. Dealer has no idea...

The 4wd lever goes back and forth but the front wheel drive will not engage. Tractor is 27 months old with 190 hours, first problem. Dealer says probably a fork broke and needs to be taken to the tractor hospital. They will pick it up later this week. Anyone had any experience with this...

Well, I've solved my only major gripe about my BX by installing a toolbox. It is a WWII vintage ammo box that I think will work out just fine. It is bolted thru the bottom to the brace between the ROPS. Big enough to take 12" long tools and deep enough to hold several good size chains too. I...

I want to take my bucket to a welder to put on chain hooks. What is involved with removing the center connection where the lift cylinder is attached? A quick look last night in semi-darkness made we wonder just what might fall out when I removed the pin. Anyone having the benefit of...

After weeks of considering options, took delivery on a BX1800, FEL and rear blade. Thanks for all the great posts which helped tremendously (first tractor). Hope I can help someone else in some small way in the future. Have 5 hours on the new baby so far, love it!
