I own a BX2370 and recently purchased a BX2750D snowblower. I can not figure out how to attach the chute rotations shaft to the tractor. The instructions to not list the information for mounting onto a BX2370. It looks to me that I need another bracket to support the rotation shaft. Has someone noticed this before?

Mine has a small loop that bolts to the FEL control lever. Shaft goes through that. Take shaft apart and thread one of the two pieces through it.
Kind of a cheapie set up, but it works.
Not a great picture, but you can see it here.

Thanks RCW. that is real cheap. I mounted mine like that last night also but there is enough free play in the FEL lever that it make the chute rotation shaft feel very loose. Surely these a better option.
There sure is a better option. Part Number 77700-05888 from Messicks, as referenced in this thread - scroll all the way down to the bottom of the first page:

I already got it and installed it myself, haven't used it yet because it hasn't snowed, but it mounted right up and is VERY solid with both bolts tightened down. Stays mounted even with FEL on (I have BX2360 and a BX2750D SB myself). Looks like it's going to work just fine.

I had forgotten about that option, and searched the part number. Didn't find it at Messicks or Coleman today
Yea no picture when I ordered it either, but the correct part was delivered:

It really is a much more elegant solution than the 'ring'. I really disliked that thing.
