BX HST Fan upgrade kit

I'm sorry folks Yes this was what I was refering to.

No apology needed. Yes, Kubota is now installing a slightly larger version of the fan shroud, but as most guys here will tell you, (as will the Deere and Massey guys) these little fans are vulnerable, no matter what. Full underbody armor is the way to go if you ever take your mowing deck off or work in tough country that the engineers who designed the BX likely never envisioned folks doing. Even then, that fan is what it is. Wouldn't even care so much, if it were a ten minute R $ R. Sadly? Nope.

bp fick,
The plate I made can come off in less then a min. All I have to do is pull 2 spring loaded pins in front, let mower arms down, pull 2 more spring loaded pins, and then pull plate out. I do lay a 4X4 block on the floor so it doesn't tilt to much to one side, so the pins go in and out easy.
