When I dump a load out of my FEL bucket, the bucket hits the stops very hard. I have had to reweld the stops on the loader arms. What I would like to do is machine a new piston to include a cusioning effect on the extended end of the stroke. What I don't know, is the clearance needed between the...
My bx has been dripping oil out of the crankshaft seal behind the flywheel. I finally got tired of cleaning up after it. Pulling the flywheel did not require a puller, BUT be sure to mark the flywheel so that it goes back on in the same position that it came off. Two self drilling sheet metal...

Has anybody considered trying to alter the bx23 brake system to use the brakes as truning brakes? I use my tractor to backdrag a lot and would like to have more directional control. This would also help with snow removal with the back blade. I really dislike having to stop and realign the...

I have picked up a scrap LP gas tank (500 gal) to build a lawn roller. It is 3 1\2 ft in dia and will be about 6 1\2 ft wide. What size axle shaft would you recommend putting in this thing. My sod looks like a plowed field due to the moles.
