    Stabil wins, hands down.

    I used to use Stabil until I found some crystals formed in the Stabil bottle and I didn't feel comfortable with that. I switched to PRI-G, which the Youtube guy did not test but many people mentioned in the comments to his video. I have had excellent experience with PRI-G. Some claim that it...

    Turned it one time too many.

    Why not just replace the cable completely?

    Snow blower question

    All PTO shafts are telescopic. They have to be in order to accommodate the change in distance that occurs when the implement is raised and lowered. They must be cut if they cannot collapse enough to accommodate the full range of implement movement.

    Aiming the forks.

    That is surprising. That cage must vibrate much more than my cab. The picture from the camera I have mounted solid with a magnet near the top of my cab provides a rock steady picture. Maybe try to move your mount close to the point where the cage members all intersect and see if that provides...

    Aiming the forks.

    How was the camera mounted? Vibration is mostly do to the type of mount and where on the tractor the camera is mounted. Mount it on the hood sheet metal above the engine and you will get plenty of vibration.

    Aiming the forks.

    I use this camera/monitor: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FM58K2W?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 I power the wireless camera that I move to different implements (pallet forks, stump grinder) with this adapter for Dewalt 12v batteries...

    Aiming the forks.

    I have a wireless camera that is mounted on a strong magnet and is powered by a Dewalt 12v battery mounted on another strong magnet. The camera displays on a monitor in the cab. When using forks I place the camera and battery on the fork frame looking at the forks. When using my 3 point stump...

    BX 23 front tires

    The original front turf tires on by BX2370 are approaching 900 hrs with plenty of tread left. Are you spending too much time in four wheel drive making turns on pavement to have that much wear?

    Lx 4020 rops or cab (or 3520 cab)

    I bought an LX4020 cab last year and kept my BX2370 mainly for mowing and working in tight spaces. I love having the cab on the LX4020, bug free and cool in the summer and warm and dry when snow blowing in the winter. I also have the oversize R14 tires and they are filled. All that said, I...

    Pulling logs

    I use this log arch from NorthernTool https://www.northerntool.com/products/strongway-atv-log-skidding-arch-1000-lb-capacity-18in-dia-capacity-51962 With my ATV, but you could also pull it with a tractor.

    BX2680 - 400 hr service questions

    I have not replaced any hoses or lines on my 2014 BX2370 with 800+ hrs and have no intention of doing so unless I see some evidence of degradation. The tractor is stored inside so not left out in the sun and weather, if that makes a difference.

    Wheels for land rake...yes or no?

    Wheels definitely help if you are going over uneven ground. On uneven ground without wheels you have to constantly keep adjusting the 3 point up and down to avoid either scalping or missing the ground. I originally bought my rake without wheels, but soon decided to add them.

    LX2620 bucket differences

    If you decide to switch to the 60 inch bucket, I have the 60 inch bucket on my LX4020 and I ordered and installed a 58 inch Piranha tooth bar on it. I am very pleased with the both the bucket and the tooth bar.

    Stump Grinder

    I have the Woodland Mills stump grinder and I use a wireless backup camera attached to a magnet and mounted it on the grinder where it provides a view of the grinding wheel and the stump. Just watch the monitor in the cab and no sore neck.

    Need help freewheeling my PTO on my Kubota L3902

    Do you have the PTO shift lever out of gear? If your tractor has the push button electronic PTO on/off button, your PTO shaft remains somewhat engaged as long as the PTO shift lever is engaged. I found with my LX4020 (that has the electronic PTO on/off button) that I must have the PTO lever in...

    Initial purchase list vs "wish list"

    Regarding the choice between a diverter valve or true 3rd function, I recommend a true 3rd function valve. A diverter valve is an electrically controlled valve that selects between your bucket curl hydraulics and your accessory (e.g. grapple) hydraulics, therefor you cannot simultaneously close...

    FEL while mowing.

    The OP was asking about mowing with a loader on a BX or B in which case the loader does not add anything close to 6 ft of length, more like 3 ft and less than half that if you take just the bucket off.

    BX Bucket edge, Piranha tooth,pro or straight? Pros and Cons of each.

    Yes, I use it on my bucket in the winter for snow removal. It works well in increasing the capacity of the bucket and it also provides a thick wear plate for the bucket edge. It did require adding some shims to the attachment bolts at the bucket edge corners to keep it tight to the bucket, but...

    Land Pride WC1503 Chipper

    I bought a LandPride WC1504 instead of a WC1503 chipper to use on my BX2370 and it works very well as long as I don't try to chip something larger than about 2-1/2". If you want to be able to chip branches with lots of Ys, the most important chipper characteristic is the chipper inlet opening...

    FEL while mowing.

    I have never taken the loader off my BX to mow, that would be a waste of time and effort. I simply drop off the bucket and three point weight box to shorten the overall length and lighten the load. Occasionally raise the loader arms to avoid obstacles when turning.
