Seems I need to clarify that I never intended to just up the front's. Would up all 4 in a matching set. I did stop by the dealer and spoke with the mechanic. He did not like that 8 ply tire I linked in the first post either, said it would be like a solid tire- he did say, with that larger...

I knew that was coming, and your right- my friends also totally think Iv gone nuts, they may be right. As Kennysnewfarm states I was warned- but what I didn't realize when reading specs was that the front hub is only 3.5 inches off the ground, specs show double that. I plan to up the tires (all...

just got my 1880, the specs say the ground clearance is 8.3 on the 18 and 8.9 on the 2380... but holy cow, smacked a tree root from a 150' doug fir on the front hub the first time out- threw me into the steering wheel- it only has 3.5" of clearance-- Has anyone put larger tires on these BX18's...

I picked up a bx1880 and those 8" front wheels allow my front knuckles to drag in soft forest- Does anyone make 18x8.5x8 tires or will I need set of 10" front tires & wheels?

I keep eyeing that 3rd function kit and a grapple!

I did a Google search when nailing down by choice and joined the forums. I will check into those Jeep spacers- where is the filter screen at? I'm half tempted to get 2380 Tire and Wheel combo for my 1880

Got it today, the 18 has plenty of engine power- moved heavy trees around with ease. spun all 4 with ease at 2k rpm while simultaneously picking up the end of a tree with the bucket. Only limitations I faced was the physical size of the BX, and not the 18 vs 23hp I feared. Its sure a narrow...

My friend who has a 2320 and a JD 4200 visited for a few beers, the only thing we had concern over is the ground clearance that you brought up. he thinks I'm bat **** nuts for getting a bx....asked what mushrooms I ate... but honestly, my property is "finished' and in maintenance mode for the...

Good point, and not a lot of 18's on YouTube either. I did forget to bring up our 30" of wet snowfall last winter

thanks guys, wow quick responses here! Everyone has brought up exactly what my thoughts were over the last 2 days. My friends 2320 is a little to large for what I need it for and is 5K more (B2301 now) Now that the 18 uses the same bucket, transmission, axles....everything except for the seat...

$$ and iv been getting by with just my Honda ATV and a x300 mower quite well. EDIT- well not true, I blew the rear diff on the ATV pulling a large harrow at full throttle in low range with 4 sacks of cement on the rear rack. I can switch my order to the 2380 if needed

Hello, New member! I just picked up a 1880 and im hoping I made the right choice. I have 10 acres of heavily wooded flat ground with 1 acre of grass and .025 of future garden, the price difference on the 2380 in my area was 2100 bucks- My neighbor has a JD 1025R and it does EVERYTING I can...
