    Steel Bolt, Aluminium casing, a shear delight on a B7200

    There is a product called Eck made by Van Nay, LLC that is designed to be applied to fasteners or between items mated that are of dissimilar metals. I would suggest using Zinc coated fasteners. The best would be aluminum but that is not practical. Stainless fasteners would actually be much...

    Wofman, He definitely quoted me the BX2380 and mentioned the new model was a reason for the higher pricing. It looks like he is giving me 18% off the 70 series and 15% off the 80 series. (based on list pricing)

    Well the guy with the used tractor will not respond to any text or phone calls so looks like he either sold it or is not someone I want to deal with. That leaves buying new and now trying to decide between the BX1870 & BX2380. There is a $2800 dollar difference between the 2 units and I have...

    Gooseneck trailer advice

    Take a look at Sure Trac Trailers. I purchased one for shop use which runs about 30K - 40K miles per year hauling 8-12K Lbs per trip. For our use I like the thicker side rail as this holds up better when fork trucks constantly bump when loading and also gives you additional beef for ratchet...

    My dealer came back and said BX2370 no longer available, it would be the BX2380 if I went that way. He also threw in a 6' back blade and lowered the price $300 on the BX1870. They only have 2 left and when they are gone it is the 80 series and pricing goes up.

    Leaning towards new. I was considering the 2370 also but the more I research I do I think the 1870 is a better fit for me. I have hills and with the little lower center of gravity due to the smaller tires it should be better. I have mowed with a zero turn which had the wheels in the air and a...

    the new price of $13300 includes michigan tax where as the used at 10K doesn't. The guy is checking how long the warranty is still good for. I figure I could sell the 3pt bagger and recoup even more. They are pretty expensive attachments. You are correct in the fact buying new is not much up...
