    L260 run away diesel

    On the side of the Injection Pumps on the L260, there is an inspection cover. One flat blade screw holds in on. Take it off. There is a rack in there with 2 'geared' heads on the injectors. Those racks get stuck. You can probably tap on it with a rubber mallet or use a small screwdriver to...

    Leaf Vacuum Hose

    I have a Trac-Vac 1080, monster of a machine, and I need a new 8" diameter x 10' long flexible hose that goes from the discharge on the mower to the suction side of the blower housing. A factory replacement part is $280 and I drive 10 minutes from my house to pick it up, no shipping charge. I...

    One Year Anniversary....And.....

    There sure are A LOT of threads showing on the adjuster in the second picture. Seems like it has moved with the vibrations.

    Completely agree. I did this on my L260 and worked great

    WTB: BX 1800 and 2200 Body Parts

    Western KY Parts had a couple of BX2200s at their yard. I bought a hood and floor pan from them last year.

    BX Implements

    Picked up everything except the box blade for $700. The box blade was a 6' HD not as advertised. No way the BX could handle that. Trailer smoked a bearing on the way home so I have even had a chance to play with my new toys, er I mean tools.

    BX Implements

    The smaller implements hardly ever come up for sale used here. If I needed a 6' or 7' bush hog, I could buy a dozen within walking distance from my house for scrap price. The only thing I was thinking I wouldn't use is the landscape rake. But I can always sell that if I find that i'm not...

    BX Implements

    I Found a guy local to me that upped to a L series so he is getting rid of his BX implements. I am 99% sure this is a good deal, but just want to throw it out there for confirmation. All are 4 years old except landscape rake, which is 18 months old. King Kutter 48" Cut Bush Hog - No leaks...

    Which Cyclone Rake?

    I bought a used TracVac tow behind vacuum last year off craigslist for $400. After seeing it in person next to my neighbors cyclone rake I would say there is no comparison in the build quality and value, the TracVac is way more havy duty than the CR. Mine is a monster, the only thing that I...

    DIY quick attach bracket

    This looks similar to the factory JD setup. I think it would be perfect if you only have a couple attachments or you are building everything.

    Patio Project - - Concrete Pavers

    In my experience - Harbor Freight = Great Value on Tools, really crappy consumables, i.e., blades, sandpaper, cutting discs, etc. I have the $300 wet tablesaw. I do A LOT of tile work on the side. I ditched the HF diamond blade after the first job and bought a $125 one from Fastenal, don't...

    BX Front Tires

    8 ply front tires installed, HUGE difference. Now I don't feel like the tires are about ready to roll right off the rims at any moment. Front end stays planted like it's supposed to, no wobble, no squish. If you are on the fence, definitely worth the $175 investment

    BX Front Tires

    I ordered the 8 plys. They will be in tomorrow, hopefully I can go tomorrow night and get installed. The 2" spacers I installed on the rears made a huge difference in stability, hopefully the heavier tires up front will make me feel more confident on turns with weight in the bucket. I will...

    BX Front Tires

    Finally got my BX2200 going and noticed that the front tires are really squishy, especially on turns with weight in the loader. Got to looking, and the idiot before me put 2 plys on there :eek: My question is this: the tractor came with 4 plys but my tire guy can order me 8 plys for about $50...

    Truck Clock ?

    Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep service tech for 10 years. Chrysler brand vehicles, especially ones from 1998-2004, are very sensitive to voltage fluctuations. It can cause all sorts of issues from lighting, engine runability, transmission operation or accessories. The first thing I always check on...

    BX Rear Blade

    lots of 6' and 7' on craigslist around me, don't think the BX can handle anything like that lol. I also have read that on the smaller tractors you need to use a blade that is made for the subcompacts because of pin height locations? Anything to that statement?

    BX Rear Blade

    I finally got my BX 2200 up and running. I'm looking for a rear blade for driveway maintenance and snow removal. I have both Rural King and Tractor Supply within easy driving distance. So basically I have King Kutter (TRB-60-XB) or CountyLine RBSC5. Any thoughts on This? Any other brands to...
