200 hour changes

[RichAllyn]

I am approaching 200 hours on my bx23s. The 50 hour change was made by the dealer. I am looking for suggestions in relocating filters and install wheel spacers. Opinions and recommended suppliers will help me get this done so I can do it myself.

Thank you

Rich, all can be completed by you - not a problem. Just be prepared.

Get the correct filters - the correct spacers - the tools. A nice flat spot, a good jack and then tackle one at a time. The relocation of the filter will be the hardest part. Simply time and patience.

On the remote filter - two options, one is a Kubota off a B series and the other is the Racor. Both will do the job well. Get a 5/16" (8mm) quarter ball fuel cutoff valve too!!!

DO you have MMM? This answer will determine spacer size!

Yes I do have a MMM. Are you suggesting both fuel filters and the oil filter? At 72 I am in pretty good shape to get down under the tractor, but why not make it easier.

the oil filter is easy peasy ! The fuel filters are a PITA no matter the age! Having a fuel filter that you can "see" and drain are well worth the relocation.

As for the MMM - I think the max spacer you can get is 2" - but that does depend on if if have 54" or 60" MMM

Sorry about that I meant to say hydraulic filter not oil.
My mower is
RCK60B23BX. Yes a 60 inch.
Do you know of anything negative about the relocation filters new location when done. I am ready to make this change just want to ask everything first.
Thank you for your help.
