Nice "thinking outside of the box" and working with what you have to solve a problem. Although I might have used it as an excuse to go by a new tool. :rolleyes: Welcome to OTT by the way!

Reminds me of Slick50 back in the day.

Here's the same Generic brand on the Jungle. 55" Box Blade Ecotric, PeakPursuit, Yitamotor, Kaufu, Impact Implements, etc. all look the same. Probably all manufactured by the same Chinese company. 14" x 14" x 55" 101 lbs. made for garden tractors cat 0 with cat 1 adaptors. Not sure what an LX...

Nice! Just needs a little umbrella to keep the sun off it. 😆

Ebay Maybe? B6000 Tie Rod End

Mud daubers likely, not sure which switch is which though. Do a load test on the battery, with a loose belt it may not have been charging properly. You can read 12.62 volts no load and half that with a load from trying to start. I use a cheap HF load tester and get pretty good results from...

Welcome Dlancaster!!! If my Corporate Financial Officer (wife) would have let me I would have gotten a 23S. She just didn't have the same enthusiasm as I did when we got the 1880.

If you're talking about the concrete tank on the left use a shovel and install risers with a lid. Easy access for future pumping. Since it's new the soil won't be too bad to shovel out. If you're talking about the field to the right a back blade or box blade with scarifiers. If you're scraping...

Glad it didn't flip you over - on a sunny day - working alone - with the ROPS down.

You may already be aware of maintaining the correct lead/lag ratio between the front and rear tires. If not here's a good read. Lead - Lag tire ratio

Very nice. I've got side mirrors on my Original Tractor Cab and still need to turn around to see, especially when the doors knock them out of alignment. I've been eyeing adding a center mirror like you did.

As stated above - Diesel Rated Oil - do not use the same oil as you use in your car. 10/30 should be fine for your area.

Check out this 2 year old video I found on Bootube. B7300 Turf Tires At about 2:30 he reads off the tire sizes and they're also listed in the description under the video. The sizes should be on the side of your current tires. Double check/measure your rims to be sure. Others here on OTT have...

Nope - BTDT I use float 90% of the time, still loose steering pushing full loads. BX1880 is a fairly light tractor overall. Doesn't take much to "lift" the front just enough to affect steering. Lifting the bucket or plow just a bit seems to transfer the weight back onto the front wheels. At...

What Spam Bot said. You've got an 18+ year old hose there. Buy a new hose with new clamps, cut off the old one, clean up the connections, install the new hose. While you're at it do both the top and bottom hoses. Happy for another 18+ years.
