Hi everyone. Had a fire on Thanks Giving. lost my shop with my baby (BX25) in it! I had it set up with my blower on it for the winter. Backhoe was off in the lean-to. Well needless to say, I now have a backhoe off a tractor that only had 53 hrs. on it. I have ordered my...

Has anyone else experienced ripped tie rod boots on their BX 25? This will be the 3rd time replacing mine since I bought it. I have less than 70 hours on it. They seem to be ripping right where the large clamp band is at. Both sides are doing this. They are not being caught on anything while...

I built this cab 2 years ago. It has held up great to the weather. I do only use it in the winter though. It is made out of clear pine and 1/4" luann plywood for the roof. All joints are pocket screwed and filled with plugs then sanded down. I routered out for the windows, then used 1/8"...

Hi, Long time reader, 1st time poster. I have a BX25 that I have been doing a few mods over the last year or so. I've made my own Bobcat style QA,fork assy.,and converted an old Bolens 48" blower on my own semi-qa mount. Also have built my own cab that has worked great these last 2 winters. I...
