    Bxpanded fork

    I got the bxpanded tooth bar and flat bar for my bx23 a few years ago and really like them. I also got the forks, and while i like how easy they go on, i don’t think the clips that hold them on are worth much. I just put a new set on this weekend. They went on tight, but they loosened up...

    Quick yoke malfunction

    The quick yoke to my mower deck is not working well, if at all. I can’t get the mower shaft connected to the pto because the ball bearings won’t all collapse at the same time. When I pull back the outside housing it doesn’t seem to seat properly. New parts are $350. Anyone with a suggestion...

    No juice to the starter

    20 year old bx23. my tractor was having increasing problems turning over. I thought it might be one of the shut off sensors but I made the determination the battery was just old - it would not hold a charge on or off the tractor. I bought a new battery and had the same problem of not turning...

    Bx23 Mower deck lift

    2003 BX23. I bumped some stuff with the mower deck and the lift stopped working. Years ago, I broke a rod that runs from the rear of the tractor to a lever on the deck. However, this rod appears intact. I do not see any movement in the rod when I try to raise the deck. Any thoughts?

    BX 23 canopy

    My homemade sun canopy has bit the dust and I'm going store bought. this time. What's your favorite canopy, and why. Price, convenience, durability. I don't trailer my tractor but being able to easily dismount the canopy would be a plus. I also like to cover it with a golf cart enclosure, so...

    Wheel leak

    18 year old bx 23. 600 hours. My right rear wheel sprung a pin hole leak right above the valve. I jacked the side up so the ballast stopped spraying out. Any chance I could just epoxy it or something or should I just get a new wheel (probably with a tube to make putting ballast in a bit easier).

    Transmission problem...

    Bx23 purchased 2003. I just did a repair on the steering cylinder, by replacing it. Steering was solved, and I did a little mowing. Went back out to do more after dinner and the hydrostatic transmission is acting weird. Tractor runs a few feet and then comes to an abrupt stop. Happens...

    Bx23 streering cylinder

    Bx23 purchased 2003. My steering goes in and out and I've already determined I need a new steering corner cylinder which I acquired. In removing the old cylinder, can 1) can I just unscrew the end caps by bracing one end with a wrench? 2) will I need heat to break the caps loose? 3) I...

    Bz23 Tractor won't shut off...

    Bx23 2003, my ignition won't turn off my tractor. I had to stuff a plastic bag in the air intake to shut it off, a rag did not work. I had a brief conversation with a service guy before they went home and he suggested a fuel shut off solenoid might be bad. There are a couple of unconnected...

    Tire chains BX23

    I bought my bx23 in 2003 and have been using the same pair of chains since then. The links have stretched over time and fall off frequently - one fell off last snow fall and I still haven't found it, so it looks like im getting new ones. I've had metal chains but I saw they have rubber ones...

    BX23 purchased 2003

    I have been having increasing steering problems. The problems started out intermittent where I would spin the wheel a few times and then the steering would engage, to taking more spins, to finally hardly steering at all. This happened over a the course of months. All the hoses under the...

    Tire bead leaks

    Bx23 rear tire has a leak on the bead. I didn't realize it in the snow and all the saline fluid leaked out. I could try sanding the inside of the rim (wire brush, etc), or, maybe do a tube, but can you put fluid in the tire with a tube? Also, what do people generally do for replacement saline?

    replacing snowblower auger

    I have a BX2750B snow blower that I ruined one of the augers on. I am trying to pull out the gear box assembly but I can't drive out the hex bolt on the gear box shaft to remove it. It's number 7 on the parts diagram. I tried a punch and then a compressor driver/hammer, and then heating it...
