I have a b 2320 and was wondering if anyone has tried to convert the two pedals fwd and rev pedal to one pedal like a rocker pedal. I think the L series and the BX series are like this. Thanks

Mechanically anything is possible, just need the right linkage. Electrical is the same but now you have to have some electronics skills.

I think I'd prefer 2 separate pedals over 1 combined one. That way you don't have to 'balance' the pedal or find a neutral adjustment.

I have a BX2320 and it came with the single rocker pedal. I would prefer 2 separate pedals. Especially if you do a lot of backing up as I do

Same here, I think the single rocker pedal is located and angled all wrong for loader type work where you are back and fourth constantly, at least for me... I would rather have two pedals as this is just not instinctual but it might get that way soon as it is all new to me.

I prefer the single pedal myself. The dual pedal can be a problem for inching forward or back. I think the dual pedals have the tendency to creep as well.

I haven't driven a two pedal BX, but to me, the single pedal is instictively right, and the two pedal system just seems wrong. Maybe I just don't know any better. As for finding "neutral", all you have to do is pick up your foot.

I was sitting on a BX2370 the other night at the local farm expo. I found out if you have a big enough foot, you could just put your foot on the linkage between the two pedals and use it like a single pedal. I would be tempted to just add a plate and make it a single pedal if I had one.

I haven't tried a single pedal configuration but when I have mounted a tractor that has one, I find it to be in the way. I like the two pedal system but once in a while it would be nice to have my foot on one single pedal to move back and forth quickly. There is a guy on youtube that has a few videos of some mods he made to his tractor. One of those mods is an extension of the rear pedal by using a piece of metal and then covering it with a OEM rubber piece that is used on the forward pedal. It looks like it give the best of both worlds.

I've been using single rocker type pedals since the early 90's at home on a Ford and two Kubotas. We have a Montana at the shop at work that I've operated and it has two separate pedals. I could be equally happy with either setup.

I am currently doing a twin pedal mod to my B1550. I find the treadle pedal awkward for reversing. I'll post some pics and a video soon.
